it's not a calculation, it's a static assignment, since the size is always
known during compilation. if you look at the latest Single Unix Specification,
you'll see:

address_len
Points to a socklen_t structure which on input specifies the length
of the supplied sockaddr structure, and on output specifies the length
of the stored address.

(http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/accept.html)

also note that the parameter is *not* declared as const, which it should be if
the function isn't allowed to change it.
