This tells me that it is designed to be used only when the platform
does not offer inet_ntop().  If your platform does have it, why is
your build define NO_INET_NTOP?

Perhaps configure generated by autoconf is faulty?

In this project, use of autoconf/configure is optional---in other
words, it is expected that you can build successfully by setting and
unsetting necessary Makefile macros in your own config.mak without
using autoconf/configure at all.  I'd try without configure and make
sure I do not define NO_INET_NTOP (and if you have inet_pton(), then
make sure you do not define NO_INET_PTON either) in config.mak if I
were you.
