HI!

I'm trying to build Python2.4 on a rather old Debian
machine. 
Building _socket fails (see below) although I tried to use

configure --disable-ipv6

I've added

#define INET_ADDRSTRLEN 16

to Modules/socketmodule.h which made it work. There
were no problems compiling Python2.2 on the very same
machine.

Ciao, Michael.
