One solution against the problem that it would take long time to
resolve names is to define a new runtime-configuration variable
which selects protocol family being given to getaddrinfo()
through 'hints':
Additionally, when rfc2553bis is standarized, we can omit
quering for AAAA records by specifing AI_ADDRCONFIG flag to
getaddrinfo() if runtime-environment is not IPv6 capable
(even if we give PF_UNSPEC or PF_INET6 to getaddrinfo()).
KAME already has this feature.
If you want to this flag, you must check AI_* values are
not conflicted (AI_* values defined in old glibc are
conflicted).
