>How-To-Repeat:
Hmmm. I imagine it's something wrong with my configuration, rather than a bug, but I have a fairly ordinary configuration, so others may also have this problem.
>Fix:
It looks like it needs to link in the library that contains the '__inet' functions, but I don't know what library it is
