Here, I’d expect either ‘EAI_NONAME’ or ‘EAI_SERVICE’ (glibc 2.11
returns the latter on GNU/Linux). On ‘i386-apple-darwin9.2.2’ it
succeeds:
err = 0 `Unknown error'
My guess is that it’s a bug. What do you think?
If it is indeed a bug, should we try to work around it in Gnulib?
Any idea how this could be done?
Out of curiosity, what does getservbyname("does-not-exist", NULL) return?
