If we plan to fix this up in the future, it is better to fix as soon as possible, IMHO. In anyway, there is one more issue in my patch. We cannot correct 1st argument of getnetbyaddr(3) without breaking ABI compatibility. Fortunately, getnetbyaddr(3) is not refered else where in our libraries. So, I'll fix getnetbyaddr(3). Sincerely,
