Same issue with network adapter resolution for PGM.  pgm_getaddrinfo resolves
names as hostnames before interfaces, therefore a broken DNS system will
return an incorrect address for eth0, hme0, etc, instead of failing and
falling through.

I can only think of making an equivalent to AI_NUMERICHOST that does not
forward onto a network service, although that raises questions about NSS
networks which could be LDAP or NIS hosted which only makes things more
confusing.
