Forget this please and read it as: This problem is caused by using AI_ADDRCONFIG by applications and by GLIBC's bug that prevents even IP literals from working correctly. Please default to AI_ADDRCONFIG. Please re-think the whole AI_ADDRCONFIG idea as it seems to = be an ugly and fragile hack. --=20 Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=3Demail ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
