I suspect Thomas is right and the fix that was put in (sheepishly: by me) was not correct. I'll vote for this to be included in 5.3.1 (the next rc release of which I'll push tomorrow; I really wish SF CVS servers hadn't gone down a month ago... That's when I had the most free time and it really blew my release schedule).

We've had this discussion before, not Robert> that long ago. It's not that simple, I'm afraid. Much of the time it's also how the structures used by the kernel store them. I'm pretty sure that some systems are storing them in host order and others in network order, which means you sometimes need to apply htonl and other times you don't. That's what's truly broken. But you're right, we should have a policy about how things are stored. I say host-order. Or maybe network. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. Using Tomcat but need to do more?
