Does Haiku have no IPv6 support at all, or it is just the getaddrinfo
and the like functions which are missing?

Haiku does not yet have complete IPv6 support afaik (would've been a  
GSoC project), it does have getaddrinfo though. Not setting NO_IPV6  
currently leads to compilation errors (redefinition of struct  
sockaddr_in), I assume that should be fixed on their side of things.

In the current series of patches I had not included a check for  
libnetwork in configure.ac, so that getaddrinfo does not get detected.  
Would you prefer to have it already detected, but to override it via  
the above Makefile line? (That works as well.) Or to have it detected  
but have the user manually pass NO_IPV6=YesPlease to avoid a future  
revert of that line?
