   See https://bugs.chromium.org/p/oss-fuzz/issues/detail?id=56529.

   We already have workarounds for similar issues in the http_request target, so this probably just needs another one of those.

   The issue keeps cycling, but the latest one can be found via something like https://issues.oss-fuzz.com/issues?q=evutil_inet_pton

   Closing since

   • I’m not sure if this is still a thing
   • I don’t really care to fix it and clearly nobody else does either
   • In any case, it’s an upstream issue and the oss fuzz issue exists as well

   It was reproducible in our CI config once: https://issues.oss-fuzz.com/issues/42521668#comment5

   But yeah, not sure if anyone cares.
