Yes, you don't need extra AAAA RR for ::ffff:w.x.y.z. It is treated
as IPv4 address in getnameinfo(3) (actually getipnodebyaddr(3)).
Once getnameinfo(3) returns FQDN, FQDN itself doesn't have the
information whether the address is ::ffff:w.x.y.z or w.x.y.z. This is
why we need AF_UNSPEC to getaddrinfo(3). Unless it, we cannot get A
RR for ::ffff:w.x.y.z.

brian> 1.0.0.0.0 IN PTR gw.lan.Awfulhak.org.
I forgot the fact you have AAAA RR. NI_WITHSCOPEID is meaningless in
your case. When AAAA RR is not available, NI_WITHSCOPEID adds a scope
identifier to a resulted string form of an IPv6 address. Then,
information for scope is not lost.

brian> My DNS says:

Okay, I understand your problem.
brian> Giving getaddrinfo() hints with AF_INET6 gets the AAAA record.
Umm, getaddrinfo(3) searches AAAA RR even if AF_UNSPEC is specified.
What's happen?
brian> Interestingly enough, getaddrinfo seemed to be returning two
brian> 172.16.0.1 INET entries when it was given AF_UNSPEC in the hints....
brian> I don't know if that's relevant in any way though.
I see. realhostname_sa(3) didn't initialize hints correctly. Please
