OK, thanks, I understand the patches.

However, as the gethostbyname() original problem, using
gethostbyname() for either of IPv4 and IPv6 still seems to be
difficult because it doesn't return sockaddr, but actual
protocol dependent address structure.
But there might be also some useful case which I don't know
yet.

Do you have some plan or idea about it?

Thanks,
Yoshinobu Inoue
