[openbeosnetteam] fixed netstack, but no time to continue work, anymore

Hi,
the netstack should work now (again). I tested the following apps:
Net+ (worked)
ping (worked)

BONE's "host" bincmd wanted an additional symbol to be defined in our libbind, 
so I copied it from our old one. It worked nicely and reported that 
www.google.com is an alias for www.google.akadns.net, etc..

"cvs update" worked on subdirectories, but not on our whole repository ("broken 
pipe", what does that mean?).

Mozilla resolved the host name, but did not request data from the HTTP server 
(possibly because of missing SO_NONBLOCK feature).

Unfortunately, this was the last day I could do serious work on our netstack. I 
will be back around the end of June. Of course PPP will continue to improve (it 
needs an API documentation and a working ppp_server running in net_server), but 
very slowly.

Don't give up. We want Mozilla to work by Waltercon.
Also, the cvs (libnet.so) "broken pipe" problem needs to be fixed before we can 
release an alpha testing version (I know, there are threading-issues...who 
cares? ;). BTW, cvs worked with BONE, so it is our bug.

Bye,
Waldemar
