That seems Turing-complete in general :-(.

It may well be that the problem is not so much that your getaddrinfo
doesn't work, as that we're not interfacing to it correctly. Which of
the macros in src/include/getaddrinfo.h are actually being absorbed from
the system headers, and which are we using our own values for?
