This is probably getnameinfo() not supporting AF_UNIX, which I already was afraid of. And the return value of getnameinfo() isn't checked either. My suggestion was to make our own getnameinfo_unix() like we have a getaddrinfo_unix() for exactly the same reason. It should be rather easy to write since we already have a getnameinfo() in it that supports it.
