I believe the problem to be deeper down. In kde_getaddrinfo (netsupp.cpp) or 
even with the system's getaddrinfo(3).

True. I wrote that the values are undefined as of now so that no one uses them 
to tell what the error is. But, in truth, the error value stored is that of 
getaddrinfo(3). The only problem is that the constants are not present in 
every system, so the systems lacking them couldn't test the error codes.

As I said below, it's just a matter of writing a function to translate from 
one set of constants to another.

This is a bugfix, even if a minor one that happens only in very specific 
conditions.
