Re: INADDR_NONE, here are a couple of threads that may be useful. The first
is a bit quick-and-dirty, the second one is fancier, but seems to cover more
architectures. (Note: I am not an autoconf guru, so don't ask me for help
with actually implementing any of these.)

Some systems don't define INADDR_NONE. This macro might be helpful.
There might be a better name for it.

AC_DEFUN(AC_HAVE_INADDR_NONE,
[AC_CACHE_CHECK([whether INADDR_NONE is defined], ac_cv_have_inaddr_none,
[AC_TRY_COMPILE(
[#include <sys/types.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>],
[return INADDR_NONE;],
ac_cv_have_inaddr_none=yes,
ac_cv_have_inaddr_none=no)])
if test $ac_cv_have_inaddr_none != yes; then
AC_DEFINE(INADDR_NONE, 0xffffffff)
fi])

Hi,

this patch fixes some portability issues in the INADDR_NONE
m4 macro. In particular, some platforms need to include
<sys/types.h>.

On Linux, INADDR_NONE is defined to ((in_addr_t) 0xffffffff); I believe
this is also the correct value on other platforms.

If you can't find it anywhere in /usr/include (netinet/in.h is the right
file here), then perhaps this should be conditionally defined in
FreeTDS.
