This kills the output from the case where "sockfd < 0" evaluates to true for the last entry in ai, no (just above your second hunk), no? In that case errno gets copied to saved_errno, and the old output would do strerror(old_errno), but now you just print the log you've gathered, and don't even look at saved_errno.

If this is intentional then you should probably kill the saved_errno variable also, it's rendered pointless by this patch.
