There are several implementations that use a different types.

Originaly it was an "int *", then it got changed to an "size_t *", and then to
an "socklen_t *". So depending on the OS, you get something else.

On Linux on an s390, size_t is an unsigned long for some reason, and socklen_t
is an unsigned int.

See http://autoconf-archive.cryp.to/ac_func_accept_argtypes.html for a script
that  checks all variants.  You can then use ACCEPT_TYPE_ARG3 in your source to
get the right type.
