that string appears in /usr/lib/libc.a several times

hmm, I thought we would make sure that servername points to something
on AIX to work around some bogosity

create a 15-20 line standalone program which calls getaddrinfo() in
the same manner and exhibits the behavior, and call IBM support and
get them to tell you what has to change (patch libc, change program,
whatever) to make getaddrinfo keep quiet when you run your program

if you want, send the simple test program to me and I'll try it on my
maintenance level of 5.1 first...

The resolver stuff can behave differently based on the configuration
(files, dns, other). It would be good to know what nsswitch.conf or
NSORDER setting is required to encounter the issue on your box.
