I was having a lot of difficulty reconciling the comment's reference to 
netdh.h with reality because I can't find that file on any local 
machines and all the Google refs to it look like typos. In the case of 
Solaris 11 the structure that needs to be checked appears to be in netdb.h

I've just raised 29223 on Mantis with a patch to enable cnetdb for 
Solaris (tested on SPARC OpenSXCE 2014). I'm afraid that I don't have 
access to any of the BSDs which similarly lack it (anybody?).
