Ok, so you've already got pnet compiled and running on a 64 bit box ?

The original plan was to do a standard glibc port ie .. use the steps
needed for porting glibc to a new platform. To replace the platform POSIX
calls and use the rest of the API. PnetC was supposed to be a stand-in
replacement till that date.

it would be a wasted effort trying to implement stuff like printf() formatting
afresh in pnetC ..

I see that you've already dumped the patch to savannah ... (sorry,
my devel box is down now, will check it later on) .... though I would say
I'm very impressed by the way your code (except the brace indents and
formatting details...)
