Well, it appears that the transaction traffic was not being exposed to the

if the hostname string is already in octet/dot notation (I was just using it
to fill in a valid addrinfo struct).

There are some known issues with the implementation of getaddrinfo. getaddrinfo will try using every method it knows to resolve a query. It doesn't stop when it finds an answer, it just keeps on going to get a comprehensive list of all answers. This will probably be changing in the future.
