That sounds like a rather poor approach. You never know which applications
users want to run. And telling users that they have to replace inet_pton
with getaddrinfo usually doesn't have a lot of effect.

RFC 3493 is also silent about a preference for using getaddrinfo over
inet_pton when it comes to parsing IP address literals.
