Two possible fixes:
 - get Opera to stop deciding what the network should behave like
   and explain them that getaddrinfo() and more specifically RFC3484
   exist for a reason and that the OS definitely know more than they do

 - get Microsoft to include a connectivity test inside their stacks.
   (which, partially, is there for Vista/Seven)

Both require people to upgrade stuff, the first requires less people to
upgrade, the latter would fix other issues.

Greets,
