Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.1.2-0pre4
Severity: normal
On line 182 of this file it defines MSG_DONTWAIT to be MSG_TRUNC which
results in my program giving 0x20 instead of the desired 0x40 to the system
call and thus my program fails.
I have changed this line to be the following (matching what is done with the
surrounding code). Now my program works as it did before.
#define MSG_DONTWAIT MSG_DONTWAIT
