For DECC on OpenVMS, the symbol EAI_ADDRFAMILY is defined in netdb.h, 
and if netdb.h gets included before lib/addrinfo.h, then lib/addrinfo.h 
will not define those symbols.

This may be the same for OSF1 on Alpha.

I do not know for OSF1 on Alpha.

But now that you know what is happening, maybe you can figure out a 
workaround.

For OpenVMS, I have the program that generates config.h put in the 
config.h file a #include "vms_config.h".  In the vms_config.h I put all 
the manual fixups.

In the vms_config.h I put the missing definitions for the EIA symbols 
that were compatable with the existing EIA symbols supplied by the 
operating system.
