I noticed this with the latest CVS Wget: $ wget ftp://ftp.deepspace6.net/pub/ds6/sources/nc6/nc6-0.5.tar.bz2 --23:45:52-- ftp://ftp.deepspace6.net/pub/ds6/sources/nc6/nc6-0.5.tar.bz2 => `nc6-0.5.tar.bz2' Resolving ftp.deepspace6.net... 2001:760:204:10:10:a7ff:fe16:27f4, 3ffe:8300:0:1:10:a7ff:fe16:27f4, 192.167.215.13 Connecting to ftp.deepspace6.net|2001:760:204:10:10:a7ff:fe16:27f4|:21... failed: Address family not supported by protocol.

Wget works well, but it looks ugly because my machine is not configured for IPv6. According to OpenGroup's web site, AI_ADDRCONFIG flag should be of use here. Should I be worried that the getaddrinfo man page on my (RHL 9) system doesn't mention AI_ADDRCONFIG?
