Just re-tested with AIX 5.2 ML5 (latest available at the time of writing) and it
has the same behaviour for getnameinfo (fail for all-zeros IPv6 address) so the
hack is still needed for IPv6 to be useful.

BTW1: the patch #809 does not enable the hack by default, to use it you will
need to add -DAIX_GETNAMEINFO_HACK to CFLAGS.

BTW2: AIX does not permit listening on both INET and INET6 sockets on the same
port, so you will need to put "AddressFamily inet6" into your sshd_config file.
 This will also accept INET connections (presumably via 4-in-6 mapped addresses).
