Modified Files:
socket.h
Log Message:
Deal with an alignment problem on the Alpha port. The maximum required
alignment of any field in a struct sockaddr is 1, since all members are
chars or char arrays (as noted by Ross Harvey on port-alpha). This causes
the possibility of unaligned access faults when a sockaddr is cast to
e.g. a sockaddr_in. Solution: explicitly direct the compiler to
longword-align the start of a struct sockaddr.
