Dan Rosenberg pointed out that there were some signed comparison bugs
in the phonet protocol.
There are two ways to solve this: change *only* the proto_get function to use 
an unsigned parameter, or cast the protocol to unsigned in the comparison.

As David pointed out, your patch breaks the socket() callback prototype.
Yes.  I really appologize for that.  I'll send version 2 with that create()
change dropped.  It's not needed.

I would like to keep the change to phonet_proto_register() because the
check in there isn't right and it's similar to phonet_proto_get().   We
may as well keep phonet_proto_unregister() as well so it's symmetric.
Let me know if you disagree and I'll redo it.
