System: NetBSD berkshire.research.att.com 1.5.1_BETA NetBSD 1.5.1_BETA (BERKSHIRE) #0: Fri Apr 20 09:18:32 EDT 2001 smb@berkshire.research.att.com:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/BERKSHIRE i386


>Description:
	netdb.h and socket.h have the line

	#define socklen_t       socklen_t

	This tends to hinder compilations...


>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
	The correct line is

	#define socklen_t       __socklen_t

	and is present in 1.5R; those changes need to be pulled
	into 1.5.1
