+22. Arranged to use getipnodebyaddr() instead of gethostbyaddr() in systems
+ with IPv6 support that have this function, because gethostbyaddr() doesn't
+ work for IPv6 addresses on all systems (it does on some).

broke linux. There is no getipnodebyxxxx() in glibc and never be.
getipnodebyxxxx() are obsolete in favour of get(addr|name)info().
Please revert this change.

ps. getaddrinfo internally uses gethostbyname2() while getnameinfo() uses
gethostbyaddr() + gethostbyname() in glibc.
