I've just built glibc-2.18 on an i686 system with gcc-4.8.1. Under "make
check" I'm getting a failure on tst-getaddrinfo4, and I'm wondering if
that's anything to get excited about.

The file tst-getaddrinfo4.out reads as follows:

SUCCESS getaddrinfo(service=NULL, family=0, flags=0): Unknown error: Success
SUCCESS getaddrinfo(service=NULL, family=0, flags=32): Unknown error:
Success

Any failure is something to get excited about. An i686 build should
have no failures in the testsuite.

You'll have to dig into the test to see exactly what it expects and
what is failing.

Can you suggest a place to start digging? I've tried googling the error message + glibc:

Servname not supported for ai_socktype glibc

This turns up a fair number of messages from 2004, notably
http://sourceware.org/ml/glibc-bugs/2004-08/msg00202.html ,
but nothing relevant AFAICT from more recently.
