--- Comment #13 from D.Zebralla <daniel.zebralla@arcor.de> ---
After the first quick test: Yes, it looks like the IPv6 UDP packet is now sent.

However, I am wondering if it's really the right thing to stuff padding bytes
into sockaddr_in6. I am not familiar with the whole networking code stuff, but
I saw that in the Windows world and partly in various unix flavors 28 Bytes for
sockaddr_in6 or even little less seem common.

Is there any RFC, ISO or POSIX standard where it's said that these structures
should have the same size?

What about this sockaddr_storage struct?

On a sidenote: Why was there even a 'len'-parameter in bsd_bind() when it was
not used up until your patch?

Thanks in advance!
