Nathaniel Smith added the comment:

Ugh, apparently this weird behavior is actually mandated by the RFC :-(.

RFC 3493:

   The nodename and servname arguments are either null pointers or
   pointers to null-terminated strings.  One or both of these two
   arguments must be a non-null pointer.

So... never mind!
