Changes for version 0.20
- Added bin/getaddrinfo and bin/getnameinfo script (replaces previous examples/gai.pl)
- Split Socket6api into its own module
- Emulate AI_NUMERICSERV in PP emulation since most OSes in practice support it, even though RFC 2553 doesn't define it
- Provide Exporter tags for named constants
- Don't even attempt to build XS code if no C compiler is available
- Try to use core's Socket::getaddrinfo if it exists; as it does on Socket 1.93 (perl 5.13.9).
- Avoid Test::Exception and Test::Warn as they're non-core and pull in Sub::UpLevel
- Use ExtUtils::CChecker 0.06's ability to write a config.h rather than using C commandline -DFOO that might not be portable
- Moved legacy resolver emulation code into its own PP.pm for code neatness
- BUGFIXES:
- Bugfix for non-C99 compilers - avoid C99-style struct initialiser
- Bugfix for threaded perls - aTHX/pTHX in err_to_SV()
- More MSWin32 fixes [rurban]
- Use ppport.h
