It seems my problem with the original code (which inspired version
1.12 of realhostname.c (breaking IPv4 mapped addresses)) was due to a
dumb mistake on my part.
I had IPv4-only entries for the machines that were having problems
in /etc/hosts. When getaddrinfo() is passed an AF_INET6 hint, it
tries harder to find the AAAA records, and found them in my DNS
(perhaps this is a little peculiar).
The original code works fine (using AF_UNSPEC) once I fix /etc/hosts.
My apologies to ume, and my thanks for his patience.
