I guess i should not do this kind of thing when i'm sick. Then again,
i was not aware that fink wouldn't complain over misspelled syntax.

Yeah, i see that now. I had to edit '/Users/davidlowe/Downloads' out
of the patch. With any luck, i'll remember to use the relative and not full
paths next time.

When i first saw that, i assumed that i was meant to substitute
something in the place of default_script . I was pleasantly surprised when it
worked anyway.
And now for the reason behind the patch: the 2.3.0 version adds support
for IPV6 networking, and as part of that uses a macro called AI_NUMERICSERV
that is not part of Leopard. The fix i found online was to provide a
conditional #define setting it to zero. How have other maintainers dealt with
this, or am i the first to run into this particular problem?
