Eh? Even my FreeBSD used well shows a structure object.
(FreeBSD)
/usr/include/netdb.h
struct addrinfo {
        int     ai_flags;       /* AI_PASSIVE, AI_CANONNAME, AI_NUMERICHOST */
        int     ai_family;      /* PF_xxx */
        int     ai_socktype;    /* SOCK_xxx */
        int     ai_protocol;    /* 0 or IPPROTO_xxx for IPv4 and IPv6 */
        size_t  ai_addrlen;     /* length of ai_addr */
        char    *ai_canonname;  /* canonical name for hostname */
        struct  sockaddr *ai_addr;      /* binary address */
        struct  addrinfo *ai_next;      /* next structure in linked list */
};

Then, It was helped actually.
