I can try, but I only have AIX 5.3 to test with, so I won't be able
to test for bugs in other versions.

I would need to know what the problems with getaddrinfo on AIX are.
Is this an exhaustive list?

I'll also try to investigate known bugs in AIX' getaddrinfo.

AIX 4.3 has been out of support for some time - if it makes the
task easier, would it be an option to desupport it?

Yours,
Laurenz Albe
