+Subject: [PATCH] inet_aton: Use getaddrinfo() if possible
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Socket::inet_aton() used gethostbyname() to process arguments that are
+not an IP addres. However, gethostbyname() is not thread-safe and when
+called from multiple threads a bogus value can be returned.
+
+This patch does add any new test because a basic inet_aton() usage is
+already covered and because reproducing the thread failure would
+require flodding DNS servers with thousounds of request.
