See the post I just made --- fe-secure.c calls pqGethostbyname(), and
that should be converted to getaddrinfo --- once that is done, we can
omit the test on platforms with getaddrinfo() as you indicated.

Can someone handle this.  I am heading to Mexico tomorrow.  I an adjust
the test script when I return but I would like to see fe-secure.c
adjusted.
