Sorry, you've lost me.  The non-getaddrinfo parts of Gnulib?  Of Emacs?

For what it's worth, the Gnulib getaddrinfo module is supposed to work on a wide 
variety of systems lacking getaddrinfo, not just on MS-Windows.

I'm sure you mean something straightforward, it's just that I'm not getting it.

What I was thinking was that we add the Gnulib getaddrinfo module, and apply 
something like the attached (untested) patch.
