Actually, it probably won't. AI_MASK is only used by getaddrinfo()
itself internally, and most of the remaining defs that actually
changed were for things that only matter in an IPv6 environment, and
packages that care about that will likely have to be rebuilt once that
GSoC project is complete anyways. Empirically at least none of the
packages I've seen are showing behavioral regressions from that
change, though that's obviously not conclusive. Wouldn't hurt to
rebuild them if someone's bored/has enough time to though, it might
fix other things besides smbd.
