I guess in this case getaddrinfo() tried to match the specified
"service" (port) with a raw socket (for which there is no notion of
"service"), and returned an error.

BTW, when I tried the same test on Solaris 10 and OpenBSD 3.6 (and
NetBSD 2.0.1 for that matter), I saw the same error.  So, it seems the
current trend is to require a specific hint, and FreeBSD is not that
special.
