The only parts of the glibc using this scope syntax are
getaddrinfo/getnameinfo. This two functions are contrary according to
the documentation and works on struct sockaddr. inet_pton however does
not fit in this and only works on the sin6_addr member of the structure.
The sin6_scope_id field is documented in RFC 3493. The scoped addresses
are specified in RFC 4007.
