OK, done (A patch to follow).

[Warning rant below]
Funny at current code the getaddrinfo() receives a zero length string as first
parameter. I would expect that a NULL string should have the same meaning as a
NULL pointer. What the hell: an: "if (p)" becomes an: "if (p && *p)". how hard
is that?

I'll leave the ipv6 and target stuff to some one more expert then me,
that can actually test it.
