Olivier,

Looks like an include file issue that may be distro dependent. The
solution may be to just cast your way out of the problem and move on.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's look at the code in question:

        [from gnet-2.0.7/src/tcp.c]
              ...
         gint error, len;
               ...
        
         /* Get the error option */
          if (getsockopt(state->socket->sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR, (void*) &error, &len) < 0)


The include file glib-2.0/glib/gtype.h indicates that 

        typedef int    gint;
        
On my system [anFC2 clone for PPCs]

         int getsockopt(int s, int level, int optname, void *optval, socklen_t *optlen);

So the problem comes down to 

	"what is the definition of socklen_t?"

On my system it is an integer, so all is well.  On your system I suspect
that it is an unsigned integer, which is the source of the problem.

Since I don't know of any "gsocket" types,  I would cast my way out of
the problem and move on.
