MingW version compiled with ENABLE_IPV6, HAVE_GETADDRINFO etc. but no HAVE_GETADDRINFO_AI_ADDRCONFIG.
Running "wget -6 url.." on a machine with no IPv6 installed silently uses IPv4. A warning with fallback to IPv4 is IMHO okay. Or an exit? Not sure about the rationale behind '--inet6-only', but the problem seems to be in defaults(); when socket() fails, 'opt.ipv4_only=1' is forced before the cmd-line is parsed. So lookup_host() uses AF_UNSPEC in the hints. My suggestion is to move the "socket(AF_INET?)" test to host.c and call it once from lookup_host(). Take action (exit?) if 'opt.ipv?_only' doesn't match returned 'res.ai_family'. Similarily, on a machine with only IPv6 (it they really exist?), '--inet4-only' should also fail or give a warning.
