Bug#70002: libc6: sockaddr_storage definition non-standard

[<herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>]

Package: libc6
Version: 2.1.3-10
Severity: normal

It seems that the glibc version of sockaddr_storage differs from ones found
in other Unices as well as the relevant standards.  It should look like this:

struct sockaddr_storage {
	u_char  ss_len;		/* address length */
	u_char  ss_family;	/* address family */
	/* and bunch of padding */
};

(There are disagreements about the names of the first two members though.)

So this needs be fixed.
