I think supporting non-standard IPv4 addr form in
getaddrinfo() is possible, because RFC2553 just says
inet_pton() doesn't support non-standard form, but it doesn't
say getaddrinfo() must use inet_pton() nor can't use
inet_addr().

And to think about existing many scripts which would be using
non-standard forms, I gradually tend to think giving away it
is not clever choice.

Also I haven't yet find any grounds of abondoning the
non-standard forms.
But I'll think about this a little bit more.
