I agree it's flaw (which could easily be fixed with new flags) that getaddrinfo can't lookup other records like MX (needed for mail delivery), SVR (needed for SIP), etc., but the impact is relatively low. If you think it's that important I'll open an issue with the Austin Group about getting such things added to the next revision of POSIX.
Can't deprecate the old one with gaping holes in the new one, and adding redundant apis to do the same darn thing is sad.
