When did that change, or is that only for IP addresses passed-in to the call? 
I was running netperf tests over IPv6 passing-in the likes of
"fe80::207:43ff:fe05:5904%eth2" and I know that all netperf was doing was
passing that to getaddrinfo() and getting scope that way (rhel5.mumble, sles10,
sles11 sp1, lenny, and solaris 10)
