Thats why we have saided it. With the Linux stack you dont have the semantic of binding to interfaces via Address, since those are different beasts. > I would definitely support a patch though for this, it's going to be a > fair amount of code to implement the proper workaround in wine. It is not much code, and the code is better in winelib/usermode than in the kernel.
