Thanks for the report, but YANTF (you are not the first :-). This is
already fixed in the next release. The ChangeLog reads:

 6. Some OS don't have socklen_t but use size_t instead. This affects the
    fifth argument of getsockopt() amongst other things. This is now
    configurable by a macro called SOCKLEN_T which defaults to socklen_t, but
    can be set for individual OS. I have set it for SunOS5, OSF1, and
    Unixware7. Current versions of SunOS5 (aka Solaris) do have socklen_t, but
    some earlier ones do not.


I'm hoping to get the next release out this month.

Philip
