Status on FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE

bind(AF_UNSPEC) is accepted (converted to AF_INET), only with a 0.0.0.0
address.

Following code works :

struct sockaddr_in addr;
fd = socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0);
memset(&addr, 0, sizeof(addr))
bind(fd, (struct sockaddr *)&addr, sizeof(addr)); -> 0

If tried on ipv6 sockets, it doesnt work : bind() returns -1, errno=47

Ok if we could add that 0.0.0.0 check too that would make me feel
better about this change.

Sure, I will send a patch in a couple of minutes.
