> Buggy due to the use of scanf at Modueles/socketmodule.c:868
I don't think so. The following test fails because sscanf() returns 5 instead
of 4:
if (sscanf(name, "%d.%d.%d.%d%c", &d1, &d2, &d3, &d4, &ch) == 4 && ...)
So '192.168.1.1 ' is passed to getaddrinfo().
If you consider that '192.168.1.1 ' is an invalid name, you should report the
issue to the vendor of the C library of your OS.

On Linux, the "issue" is also present in inet_ntoa():
