Hoerdt,
You're saying you don't like the way multicast socket semantics
were defined more than 15 years ago.
I think it's an equally valid argument that you shouldn't use
INADDR_ANY
unless you really mean *any* address-- bind to a unicast address, and you
won't
have that "problem."
But it doesn't matter -- making Linux incompatible with IPv4
sockets and all
other sockets implementations isn't a good idea.
