Robert:

Thanks for the patch.  Could you explain a few things about this patch?
You said you created a bug for this in bugzilla.gnome.org in the gdm
category, but I don't see a bug there.  Would you mind adding a bug
and attaching the patch?

First, could you explain what specific error(s) you were seeing that
this patch fixes?

The change to better calculate the address size makes sense to me.

I notice in misc.c that you are no longer setting hints.ai_family to 
AF_INET or AF_INET6.  Why is this change needed?

Also, I notice you removed NI_NUMERICHOST | NI_NUMERICSERV from
getnameinfo in common/gdm-common.c.  I assume this change is needed
so we allow DNS/NIS to be used?  Is that correct?

I'll work to get this change upstream.  Thanks for the help.

Thanks,

Brian
