Description

For easy deployment of network programs in Haskell, it would be nice if all libraries were statically linked. Golang does this well as we know.

Unfortunately, it appeared that `getaddrinfo` in `glibc` has to be always dynamically linked due to `libnss`. Now we have the `dns` library, I would like to implement `getAddrInfo` purely in Haskell.
