[Bug libc/524] New: Incorrect address ordering by getaddrinfo

["fredrik at dolda2000 dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sources dot redhat dot com>]

I call getaddrinfo on a host on my network, which has these two addresses:
192.168.0.7
2002:52b6:8514:100::3

The host I'm calling it on has these addresses:
192.168.1.254
2002:52b6:8514:200:76ff:fe3b:a3f4

The problem is that in the returned set of addresses, the IPv4 address is sorted
before the IPv6 address, even though it should be the opposite according to Rule
6, Section 6 in RFC 3484, which specifies that the address of higher precedence
should be sorted first. According to the default precedence table in RFC 3484,
IPv6 addresses have higher precedence than IPv4 addresses.
