--- Comment #2 from Martin Sebor <msebor at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Both AIX and POSIX require that:

  In this hints structure, all members other than ai_flags, ai_eflags
ai_family, ai_socktype, and ai_protocol must be zero or a NULL pointer.

The program fails to set to zero the ai_addrlen member which causes the
function to fail (with both gcc and xlc).  Once ai_addrlen is set to zero, the
program behaves as you expect.
