Is this under Linux?  Linux requires setting the scope/index field of 
the sockaddr_in6 structure so it can pick from the possibly more than 
one link-local (fe80::) addresses on the system.  The linux 
getaddrinfo() and getnameinfo() calls support a syntax for IPv6 
addresses which adds an interface name to allow it to find the correct 
index to put in the sockaddr_in6 structure:

fe80::202:c902:21:4cb9%<interfacename>

for example:

fe80::202:c902:21:4cb%eth2

otherwise, you need to use something other than link-local IPv6 addresses.
