BSD/OS 4.3 is missing the define EAI_ADDRFAMILY as referenced in ip.c.
It is marked as obscolete. However, it is still mentioned in the
getaddrinfo() manual page. I have filed a bug report with BSDi.

BSD/OS 4.2 had it defined.

I have added the proper define to our port/bsdi.h, attached.

There are other more intresting difference between rfc2553,
rfc3493.txt and for instance the SUS specification.

Only rfc2553 has EAI_ADDRFAMILY.
Only rfc2553 has NI_MAXHOST and NI_MAXSERV.

I'm probably forgetting some other things.

Re: Missing EAI_ADDRFAMILY

Oh, so this could come up on other platforms. Interesting. We don't
actually test for the error value, just return it from ip.c from
getaddrinfo() routines.
