Okay, let me chime in here.
AI_ADDRCONFIG seems to be the Wrong Thing[TM].
AI_PASSIVE seems to be the Right Thing[TM].
Part of the problem is that the fallback code for the case of
getaddrinfo() not being there is braindead, and of course the original
code used to use gethostbyname() directly. I already have a much better
fallback version of getaddrinfo() written which would let us make much
better use of the getaddrinfo() interface,
Now, what I want to know is why you are specifying the accept-all
address explicitly as 0.0.0.0 instead of an empty string.
