I only just worked out the wonky version numbering Sun use.  I thought
2.8 was a really old version since they claimed to be up to version
8...  Who'd have guessed 2.8==8?

Apparently it exists in 2.7 but doesn't work.  If it's there it'll be
defined in netdb.h

Microsoft love to claim responsibility for stuff.  The getaddrinfo API
is far from microsoft specific!
