translated? (I think you meant "translates" but my English is bad, so I
am double checking).
This indeed is much nicer, provided if it is available at least as widely
as inet_ntop() is.
We seem to ship inet_ntop() in compat/; a few questions.
(1) Do we need similar compat/ function for getnameinfo()? I am guessing
that most likely places are the ones that need NO_INET_NTOP and
NO_INET_PTON, and googling seems to indicate old Cygwin and HP-UX
11.00 may be among them.
(2) Do we still use inet_ntop() elsewhere, and if not, can we remove the
compat/ definitions?
