proto.c usage of sockaddr_in6 for Mac OS X platform

[Veronica Siu-Suen Law]

Hi there,

I have previously submitted an inquiry about an issue with CFengine 2.1.18 built on Mac OS 10.4.3 but didn't hear any response.  I thought to try resending it.

On line 66 of proto.c, a variable was set to sockaddr_in6.  When compiled under Mac OS 10.4.3, this code had a problem and it complained it didn't have a member.  I checked the codes in sockaddr.c and found that there are exception clauses regarding the Darwin platform with sockaddr_in6.  Could that be the problem?  

Does anyone else ran into this issue?  I have to set the variable in proto.c to sockaddr_in to get the code complied.
