I thought I'd at least look into the inet_ntop() -> getnameinfo() bit, and I see that the latter is posix 2001.
It is relatively easy to emulate the ipv4 part of getnameinfo(), but a lot harder to properly support IPv6 without using it.
Do we have an official position on posix 2001?
And, for that matter, C99?
Primary issue with depending on certain C99 stuff is that Microsoft still hasn't managed to support it in the runtime library or insists on doing it in incompatible ways. E.g. %lld doesn't work on Windows. Joerg
