>Description:
The getaddrinfo(3) man page says
"The getaddrinfo() function is defined by the IEEE Std 1003.1g-2000
(``POSIX.1'') draft specification and documented in RFC 3493"
However, the current implementation only supports 4 flags for the ai_flags
field of the addrinfo struct (AI_CANONNAME, AI_NUMERICHOST, AI_NUMERICSERV and
AI_PASSIVE), while the RFC 3493 list two additional flags (AI_V4MAPPED and
AI_ADDRCONFIG).
