I, too, encountered that. The patch let "configure" detect HAVE_GETADDRINFO
under MinGW-w64; passing "ac_cv_func_getaddrinfo=no" on the configure command
line is a workaround. Under !HAVE_GETADDRINFO, "configure" arranges to build
src/port/getaddrinfo.c, and src/include/getaddrinfo.h injects the replacement
gai_strerror() prototype. That understandably doesn't happen in a
HAVE_GETADDRINFO build, yet src/include/port/win32/sys/socket.h does the
following unconditionally:
/*
* we can't use the windows gai_strerror{AW} functions because
* they are defined inline in the MS header files. So we'll use our
* own
*/
#undef gai_strerror
Somehow or other, we must bring these parts into agreement.
