How slow is it?

Now, getaddrinfo(3) always queries AAAA RR in addition to A RR even if
kernel doesn't support IPv6.  It is real behavior of getaddrinfo(3)
without specifying AI_ADDRCONFIG.  Because, query for AAAA RR and A RR
is done in same time, it should not be a problem.  Once there was DNS
query order problem at 4.0-RELEASE days.  But, I believe it was
completely corrected.
