Jinmei-san,

Thank you for comments,

That's right. But It isn't exactly fixing. It is a temporary patch
for passing the test in CentOS. I don't expect to commit this patch to
trunk.

Yes, we should. I don't know the reason, but the address can to be
listened on in CentOS. This is an example of netcat command.

  CentOS 5.5:
    $ nc -u -l 255.255.0.0 53535
    (Ctrl-C)			        <-- no error
    $ nc -u -l ::ffff:255.255.0.0 53535
    nc: Cannot assign requested address <-- error

  FreeBSD 8.1:
    $ nc -u -l 255.255.0.0 53535
    nc: Can't assign requested address  <-- error
    $ nc -u -l ::ffff:255.255.0.0 53535
    nc: Can't assign requested address  <-- error

Thanks,
