It seems not to call getaddrinfo at all.  Or any of the others
described in the earlier message.

 [root at don-eve tmp]# ltrace -e getaddrinfo ssh -p 22 fubar
 ssh: fubar: Name or service not known

 [root at don-eve tmp]# ltrace -e getaddrinfo ssh -p 22 google.com

 [root at don-eve tmp]# ltrace -e getaddrinfo ssh -p 22 isis.cs3-inc.com
