This fixes the MacOSX build for common/netio on the HEAD.  I'll check it in
this afternoon unless there are objections.

Looks like the problem is MacOS doesn't define a scoklen_t.  This is surely
due to it's FreeBSD heritage (older FreeBSD versions have the same issue). 
If you have a MacOSX box, can you try this patch?

There are two ways of constructing a software design. One is to make it so
simple that there are obviously no deficiencies; the other is to make it so
complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far
more difficult.
