Re: [COMMITTERS] pgsql: Work around reported problem that AIX's getaddrinfo() doesn't

This change has broken my AIX 5.2 buildfarm machine (asp/kookaburra),
but doesn't seem to break the 5.3 member (grebe).

It appears to have problems with stats being off now?

What can I do to help debug the situation?
