Error in include file <netinet/in.h>

There is a slight error in the file /usr/include/netinet/in.h in the SCO
TCP/IP Development System.  The definition of INADDR_NONE is incorrectly
given as 0xfffffff (seven f's) instead of the correct value 0xffffffff
(eight f's).  This prevents Steven's tcp_open() from working properly
when a name rather than IP address number is given for the destination.

Will this information get to the right people in SCO or is there a
different mechanism for reporting corrections?  Ron.
