But why use a local freeaddrinfo function? The code is checking at multiple places if an addrinfo* == NULL and if it's NULL it just returns without freeing it and at some other places it just frees it. For censistence reasions i would propose to check if it's != NULL before freeing it. The spec also just defines the != NULL case and we shouldn't depend on undefined behavior imho.
