ProFTPD _does_ use getaddrinfo(), on systems which support it.  Not all
do, hence autoconf detection of the various functions (getaddrinfo,
gethostbyname(), gethostbyname2()) for various platforms.

It'd be interesting to see the config.log and config.h files, generated
by the configure script, on your platform.  And to see what tool you're
using to generate the above messages, to see just assumptions it makes
(and why it advises the above).
