Also, right now we have got

src/include/getaddrinfo.h

that we try to use libc-supplied code for these functions along with
our own header definitions.

These particular header files look like they are robust enough to deal with this case. But overall this isn't a great idea.

I think the reason we've avoided putting such stuff into include/port/
is that right now that directory consists exclusively of OS-specific
files.  Maybe we need another include subdirectory?

I think the idea is rather that you don't need to change call sites to include the system header or our own. The symlink approach I mentioned earlier might work.
