Summary: release GIL around getaddrinfo()

Initial Comment:
If getaddrinfo() is thread-safe, then we should release
the interpreter lock before calling it.  There is every
reason to believe that this operation will be slow.

How do you know getaddrinfo is thread-safe? In particular,
when using the getaddrinfo emulation, it is not.
