[Bug libc/9700] a means to sort addrinfo list


------- Additional Comments From drepper at redhat dot com  2009-01-04 17:50 -------
Stop reopening.  I have explained in detail why this proposal makes no sense at
all.  You writing

   And why is that? If you assign an unused bit the new meaning doesn't break
   anything?

makes it abundantly clear you didn't even thought the problem through.  It's
irrelevant whether it can the implemented without breaking anything.  No program
will use this code out of the box.  If you want to use it for anything then
you'll have to modify the binaries you think need it yourself.  Then you can
just as well implement it all yourself and re-sort the list.
