Thanks! I also noticed this. Each time it gives different addr family. For example
I just ran again and this time the addr family is 54. I guess some data structures
are messed up.

Attached is the patch I applied to make it build on FreeBSD. Without the patch,
gmake spits errors like:

In file included from src/aopt.cpp:37:
In file included from src/defs.h:109:
src/ip_address.h:120:50: error: no template named 'unary_function' in namespace 'std'; did you mean '__unary_function'?
