A quick test build, only specifying "--prefix" and "--sysconfdir",
shows no improvement on the present issue. I suspect the file
nbase/getnameinfo.c
to be at the source of the problem. I will conduct a further study
to better localize the faulty behaviour, be it mine or the archived
software.
Observe, that the erroneous address '32.1.4.112' in the original
message, is in fact the head of the IPv6 address '2001:470::/32'
written in network order.
