The fix is amazingly simple but looking at the patch makes me realize how little I understand the c language after years of reading c code but not writing any :/ const char *hostname = NULL; (upstream apparently forgot the = NULL) That line declares *hostname as a constant and then the statement below proceeds to assign a value to the 'constant'. I wonder how many hours of frustration have been suffered by student programmers while trying to understand the logic behind that. <coughing from the dust on my 40-year-old Kernighan and Ritchie> I see that they didn't include the 'const' keyword at all. That was a later change introduced by some ANSI committee, bless them. <sigh> I truly don't understand how any working code get written. Anyway, thanks again for the fix :)
