I had assumed that getaddrinfo_a would have the normal timeouts that getaddrinfo has -- that it would say that it's failed after a certain number of seconds. Some testing here (switching off the wifi after issuing a DNS request) seems to indicate that that may not be the case?
My (admittedly limited) understanding is that getaddrinfo_a doesn't timeout, and that the normal way to specify timeouts is via gai_suspend.
