I like this a lot. This addresses a very serious gap in the sockets API, and should be very useful. The comment mentions that this is available for IPv6. From skimming the change I would have expected inet6_bind() would need a change analogous to the change in inet_bind()? Was there a missing "git add", or is a change to inet6_bind() somehow not needed?
