Why would we risk breaking other platforms to avoid an AIX bug? At best
we can put a code comment in that section of the code.
IMO, there is no risk. getaddrinfo allows a NULL second argument on
every platform I have worked with.
The portability risk is in the "manually set the port" part.
Right. If this method is limited to _AIX and only when the failure case
occurs, there are no portability issues. I've already confirmed my fix
works on 4.3 and 6.1. The buildfarm will tell us if 5.3 works (very
likely it will).
