Follow-up Comment #4, bug #16509 (project freeciv):
On my ubuntu 10.04, I get:
NI_NAMEREQD
If set, then an error is returned if the hostname cannot
be
determined.
Which seems quite different. It doesn't mention to return the numerical
address.

If getnameinfo() doesn't return 0, it would force the server to use the
numerical address got with inet_ntop(). So it probably would fix the bug.
However, I don't know how to reproduce to test.
Do you have an other idea how a connection can get an empty hostname?
