Re: Wrap up and last call: sin6_scope_id semantics

[Francis Dupont]

 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Thus the kernel needs to be able to tell whether the application
   was statically linked against getnameinfo. This is hard as far as I
   know.
   
=> the only easy way is to change something in system calls (AF_INET6
value, system call numbers, ...). But how many real applications
need scoped addresses? All examples I know are for system tools
(ifconfig, ...) which are *not* real applications with only one
(bad) exception: net$cape.
