Hi Bruno,

Haiku does not consider this a bug. There is nothing to "solve" in Haiku.
Different OSes behave differently. Haiku instead of some error uses a more
general one. The OS specific patches are available in almost all OSes:
*BSD, Solaris / Indiana, Windows (of course) etc.

I would prepare the patch myself, jest let me know where to start. What
file(s) to consider. I found the definition of function
RAWSOCK:MAKE-SOCKADDR in modules/rawsock/rawsock.c in lines 255-279. This
file seems to be C source, which resembles Common Lisp structure (is
&optional somehow handled in C?). I just cannot find any error definitions
and handling, maybe this is up to underlying OS 3rd party libraries.

Can you guide me (probably by pointing to relevant documentation) in the
following:
- What is the architecture of CLISP modules? I see many of them use some
glue C code. What is its purpose? How it is used? I see the tool
clisp-link, which seems to be related to modules loading (or
installation?). How it is used?
- Which existing rawsock tests can I use? I see rawsock/test.tst seems to
be Common Lisp code. Does its loading starts some tests or just defines
some specific functions for testing? I also see
modules/rawsock/demos/sniffer.lisp. Can it be used for debugging / testing?

I think it is better if you report these bugs in the Haiku bug tracker [1],
