BUG: libfetch, socklen_t not defined sometimes on Darwin 6

[walt@…]

Under Darwin 6 the socklen_t type apparently doesn't get defined by the inclusion of <sys/socket.h> as it is on later systems. I did the following to make libfetch install, after which fetch installed and seemed to function.

bash-2.05a$ cd
/opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/rsync.rsync.opendarwin.org_dpupdate_dports/net/libfetch/

Eric, have you seen this patch? It would be nice to get an up or down vote to clear out the bug.
