I had the same issue and i think i resolved it.
Linux ... 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Sun May 6 04:00:17 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux

in proxychains/libproxychains.c

i changed the function to look like this and it compiled without problems. The same function is declared in /usr/include/netdb.h. Hope someone can use this info. Cheers

//int getnameinfo (const struct sockaddr * sa,
// socklen_t salen, char * host,
// socklen_t hostlen, char * serv,
// socklen_t servlen, unsigned int flags)
// size_t hostlen, char * serv,
// size_t servlen, int flags)

int getnameinfo (__const struct sockaddr *__restrict __sa,
                        socklen_t __salen, char *__restrict __host,
                        socklen_t __hostlen, char *__restrict __serv,
                        socklen_t __servlen, int __flags)

{
        int ret = 0;
        if(!init_l)
                init_lib();
        if(!proxychains_resolver) {
                ret = true_getnameinfo(__sa,__salen,__host,__hostlen,
                                __serv,__servlen,__flags);
        } else {
                if(__hostlen)
                        strncpy(__host, inet_ntoa(SOCKADDR_2(*__sa)),__hostlen);
                if(__servlen)
                        snprintf(__serv, __servlen,"%d",ntohs(SOCKPORT(*__sa)));
        }
        PDEBUG("getnameinfo: %s %s\n", __host, __serv);
        return ret;
}

Basically just took the declaration from /usr/include/netdb.h
and changed the variables in the function to match, like "__serv".
Cheers

All that mangling was entirely unnecessary, the complaint was simply 'unsigned int' versus 'int' on the declaration of 'flags'.

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package proxychains - 3.1-4ubuntu2

---------------
proxychains (3.1-4ubuntu2) raring; urgency=low

  * Fix debian/patches/600-ftbfs-getnameinfo.patch to build on amd64.

Precise is EoL, setting task to Won't Fix.
