Works fine on Tru64 UNIX 4.0D and 5.1.
OK, applied to HEAD and 8.1. I'm feeling a bit of concern though after
re-reading the comment attached to the test:
# (Note: the AC_TRY_LINK probe fails on Windows, where the available
# versions of getaddrinfo don't follow normal C call protocol. This is OK

It seems likely that the new coding will allow the test to *succeed* on
Windows. Does that happen, and if so is it bad? We can put in a hack
to suppress the test on Windows if necessary. Someone please check it
out on Windows ...
It would be bad - the whole thing is that on Windows we need to search
for some functions dynamically, so we have to use our own code to do that.
But it appears not to find it either with ipv6 installed or not. So I
think we're good (fingers crossed).
