It means you misread the code. It only passes 0 if AI_ADDRCONFIG wasn't 
defined. Since it is, then it passes the correct flag.

You should fix your system so that the boot order works properly: don't start 
the daemon until the network is up and has obtained addresses.

We will not do that. First of all, because using TCP is not recommended. Using 
it on early boot is even worse. Instead, please fix your boot order.
