Well, not. I should have done it two weeks ago!

AFAIK, nor libsocket.so nor libbind.so export getusername() and getpassword() 
API. That's true in BONE libraries and in our too, thanks to binary 
compatibility! 
So, this Be-specific APIs still lies in libnet.so.  
 
The problem is not at link time, but at compile time. 
Before, these two functions were prototyped in netdb.h, as there are in R5's 
netdb.h. 
But under BONE and our new netdb.h, there're not anymore.  
I can't find where BONE 7a defined them, if it does. 
 
Anyway, I should added them back in posix/netdb.h soon.

Twice is better!

I'm sure it's *not*!

By mistake, as I didn't have finished userland IPC of NET_STACK_CONTROL_MODULE 
ioctl yet, it was not supposed to be commited. 
But it should not hurt anything, I guess.
