BLOCK_INPUT just increments the variable interrupt_input_blocked, and
it is currently only examined by the SIGALRM/SIGIO handler.

I'm not certain about that, but I guess the assignments to
immediate_quit were copied from those around gethostbyname when the
getaddrinfo support was added.

Yes, but I think neither of them is a thing to do now. I feel a bit
inclined to put BLOCK_INPUT around getaddrinfo/freeaddrinfo to be on
the safe side.
