Re: bug in commoncpp

[David Sugar]

It seems ifr_addr and ifr_netmask are typically defined in a union and of the 
same type, so yes, they generally are interchangable.  I am not sure if there 
are any platforms this is not true for, however.

There are a few small issues left in 1.0.8 that need to be resolved.  I hope 
we can clarify them by the 1st to do a release then.  I think it is probably 
about time to do a new ccrtp release as well, as I think there is only a 
question about dropped packets still being investigated there...
