I'm using Net::Interface 0.08 (and I really like it BTW, thanks). I recently
upgraded my Mac to 10.5.4 and found that Net::Interface->interfaces no
longer was working as it was supposed to (I was getting odd names for
interfaces).
I tracked the bug down to the face that *struct ifreq* is no longer a fixed
width structure on the mac. I've attached a patch that has fixed OS X 10.5.4
without breaking my Linux build.
Also. Since it was requested on the bug report page:
