Is anyone on the GNU Libc list aware of any API standardization in this area? Any thought or input on this is appreciated.
I would suggest that hostnames should be considered to be encoded with the encoding of nl_langinfo(CODESET). All routines taking hostnames should then apply IDNA to their parameters; those taking flags (e.g. getaddrinfo) should provide a flag to suppress IDNA.
