Fair comment.
There's probably a danger of us getting bogged down in detail
before we've clarified the basic principles.


The real question is whether network addresses should be
represented internally in a native-style format (struct in_addr,
in_addr_t, struct in6_addr, etc) or in SNMP format (char[])

At the moment we seem to have a mixture, which is Not a Good Thing.
