dank@kegel.com: byteorder.h, ntohl, and compiling userspace programs:
Here's that patch again (MIME this time, so tabs don't get
lost by my silly gui mailer); applies cleanly against against 2.4.19-pre8.
Nobody commented on it last time I posted it, and it does
make compiling gcc easier, so I guess that makes it trivial patch
monkey fodder. Or am I making a silly mistake?
