good good, patch works so :) In which I'll now cc dev@apr and include
the neccessary autoconf voodoo to fix OSX/Darwin.

According to my darwin sources, it definitely fixes things for them,
but is fixed with Jaguar I believe.

Well if it ever does worm it's way in, for the sake of ultra-paranioa
it really needs a ntohl() in the RHS of the assignment. IPv6 stores
everything in network-byte-order, IPv4 structures are stored locally
as host. And you never know someone might just roll out Darwin on Sparc ;p~

I'm not entirely sure the getnameinfo() patch is needed on current releases
of Darwin. Host-based authorization *seems* to work without it.
Can someone please verify this to make sure I'm not doing something wrong
or misunderstanding what the original problem was 10 months ago or whatnot?
It's very possible this was fixed in a point release since last October.
If so, we can allow IPv6 on 10.2.6 and perhaps earlier versions if we can
get confirmation on those versions. And, we *could* also enable it on
known-getnameinfo()-broken releases with this patch in place. But, I'm not
really tempted to go that far. -- justin
