AC_REPLACE_FUNCS([getaddrinfo]) won't correctly detect getaddrinfo on
Tru64 UNIX because the function doesn't exist under that name in libc.
From <netdb.h>: #if defined (_SOCKADDR_LEN) || defined (_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED) #define getaddrinfo ngetaddrinfo #else
#definegetaddrinfo ogetaddrinfo #endif
The original code in 8.1.1 was: AC_MSG_CHECKING([for getaddrinfo by including <netdb.h>]) AC_TRY_LINK([#include
<sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <netdb.h>], [getaddrinfo(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL);], [AC_MSG_RESULT([yes]) AC_DEFINE(HAVE_GETADDRINFO, 1,
[Define to 1 if you have the `getaddrinfo' function.])], [AC_MSG_RESULT([no]) AC_LIBOBJ(getaddrinfo)])
So, what's the best way to merge the two? If getaddrinfo() is borked
on Windows, how about AC_TRY_RUN to test it out?
