AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([getaddrinfo]) will not detect getaddrinfo() on Tru64
UNIX because getaddrinfo is not in libc. Because of this, getaddrinfo
isn't detected and the compilation of src/port/thread.c fails:

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
match
