Comment(by Rocco Rutte):

 Hi,

 When setting $hostname, I think we should require it to be
 us-ascii. Otherwise, there're probably many more places to touch.

 If gethostbyfoo() routines are deprecated, I think we should go with
 their replacements in the first place and provide compatibility
 routines, i.e. hack our own getaddrinfo() using the older versions. This
 has the advantage that it's just AC_REPLACE_FUNCS and another file. It
 wouldn't clutter the code with #ifdef/#endif orgies.
