(shortend format, etc)
Current KAME getaddrinfo() supports only d.d.d.d format IPv4
addr. But traditionally inet_aton() and etc support other formats.
(shortend format and octal/deciaml/hex format)
Aboud this,
-As far as the discussion on freebsd-current, many people
think traditional format should also be supported by getaddrinfo().
-X/Open spec requires getaddrinfo() also support those
traditional IPv4 format.
-RFC2553 say nothing about it.
-As the result of confirmation in ietf/ipng list, there is
no clear concensus yet, and the reply was, "RFC2553 update
and X/Open spec will be in sync"
So takeing these conditions into account, I think
getaddrinfo() should also support traditional IPv4 format.
