I recently had a problem with inet_ntoa() - maybe it's the same one.

The argument to inet_ntoa() should be a struct in_addr, but there's some
grungy code (eg in the 4.3 timed, where I noticed it) that passes a u_long
instead.  It appears that 4-byte structures are passed differently from
integers on the Sun 4, so this doesn't work.
