OK, I have just realized that this is a problem that glibc is having.
It is intended to mean that the service name is unknown. But I still
don't see why
(a) it seems like providing a port number as "service" isn't working
here and
(b) the host name seems garbled in the error message; this suggests to
me that the Xemacs -> C interface might be goofed up.
Is there anything I can do to help track this down?

Dear Bug Team!
Summary: I am unable to use open-network-stream to connect to
localhost on this Linux box. I keep getting errors that look like
this:
"localhost/`~^H& Servname not supported for ai_socktype"
I originally encountered this trying to use the Allegro Common Lisp
emacs interface. I discussed the matter with them, and we narrowed it
down to an xemacs problem, and a new one to me, since I have been
using their interface for several years on Xemacs.
I was able to replicate the error in a minimal way using netcat.
First, I set up a listening port:
nc -l 12000
then I do
(setq foo (open-network-stream "fooproc" nil "localhost" 12000))
and I get the error.
I have checked, and I am able to connect to the listening port, and
send data, using netcat. this suggests to me that this is not just
some dumb firewall problem.
I was able to replicate this error both with the xemacs distributed by
Mandrake with my distro, and with an xemacs that I built myself there,
so I don't believe that it's just Mandrake (Mandriva) not packaging it
correctly, either. But it could be a problem with some library
installed with this distro.
I did what I could to track this down myself, but I'm afraid I got
lost in the C...
Thanks,
R

That rings a bell: there's at least one possibly related bug that bites
with gcc4 builds fixed in 21.4.18, so you may want to upgrade or check
if Mandriva has applied something like this to their 21.4.17:

New subject: [Bug: 21.4.17] Problem with open-network-stream
I have investigated this further, and on this version of Xemacs, on
this distribution of Linux, it seems that integers for service
argument cause open-network-stream to fail. If you provide the
integers as strings, everything is hunky-dory.
This seems like a bug in the C interface, but I fear I don't
understand that level of Xemacs well enough to provide a fix --- for
my purposes I have worked around by adding advice that translates
integers to strings in open-network-stream calls.
Would you mind sending me an ack in response to this? I understand
you are busy, and I don't mean to be fussy, but I have no way
otherwise of telling if this reaches anyone....

New subject: [Bug: 21.4.17] Problem with open-network-stream
On 12/14/05, rpgoldman(a)sift.info <rpgoldman(a)sift.info> wrote:
I have investigated this further, and on this version of Xemacs, on
this distribution of Linux, it seems that integers for service
argument cause open-network-stream to fail. If you provide the
integers as strings, everything is hunky-dory.
This seems like a bug in the C interface, but I fear I don't
understand that level of Xemacs well enough to provide a fix --- for
my purposes I have worked around by adding advice that translates
integers to strings in open-network-stream calls.
Would you mind sending me an ack in response to this? I understand
you are busy, and I don't mean to be fussy, but I have no way
otherwise of telling if this reaches anyone....
As Ville wrote, the XEmacs development team believes this bug has been
fixed in XEmacs 21.4.18. I recommend you download XEmacs 21.4.18 and
build from scratch.
