Well, these functions will go away. They don't solve the problems they are designed to solve. I'm not convinced it's a good idea to add the functions at all. I'm surprised to hear that. Did I miss something? They're still present in the Austin draft 3, and I haven't seen any traffick on the Austin mailing list about them. And AFAIK RFC 2553bis (draft-ietf-ipngwg-rfc2553bis) isn't amended/withdrawn either. Anyway, if they're really going to be replaced, we definitely shouldn't add them (remove getipnodybyaddr() again).
