Please add information how to reproduce this the next time you are adding such 
such a bug. Now I can just assume what you are writing is true (even when the 
man page about sendto says otherwise). Not knowing how to reproduce it in the 
best possible way just makes it harder for everyone to check the impact of the 
problem.

I've forwarded it to the upstream maintainer and attached the change for 
Debian.

Kind regards,
        Sven

Subject: [PATCH] Define _GNU_SOURCE for all POSIX target source files

Defining _GNU_SOURCE in source files differently can result in conflicting
types.
