           Summary: ntp_request.c: struct sockaddr_storage has no member
                    named ss_len
           Product: ntp
           Version: 4.2.2
          Platform: IBM
        OS/Version: AIX
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ntpd
        AssignedTo: stenn at ntp.org
        ReportedBy: dclark at pobox.com
                CC: bugs at ntp.isc.org


ntp-4.2.2p3 is failing to build on AIX 5.3 (ML5) with GCC 4.1.1. The exact text
is included below; the general error message is "ntp_request.c: struct
sockaddr_storage has no member named ss_len", and then the build fails.

BTW I am compiling on a large range of platforms, and this is the first issue
I've run into - as a reference point, AIX 5.2 ML1 with GCC 3.3.2 works fine. I
also did extensive google searches, but didn't find this issue anywhere.
