Apparently + (decided by majority vote ;) this is not the right thing to do. + GNU/Linux never complained about it, but works find without the bind. + Other operating systems don't work at all with the bind. * Build fixes for non-GNU/Linux platforms: Mac OS X doesn't define `size_t' as `unsigned int' and therefore needs casting and FreeBSD needs to have `sys/types.h' included before `netinet/*.h'
