Hi!

I explored an exception handling (?) bug in kaffe 0.9.1. Everytime I run
the test/network/DemoServer every second time it is stopped by
'NullPointerException' which is from InetAddr.getHostByAddr:
UnknownHostException.
Why should this happen?
Anyway I think that there's a parameter problem in getHostByAddr native
function, because the gethostbyaddr() function should get the parameter
in &struct in_addr instead of &addr (I checked on my BSD based
OPENSTEP4.1).
