olsrd-0.6.4 host emulation mode reg.

[Vigneswaran R]

Hello,

When I ran olsrd (0.6.4) in host emulation mode as mentioned in
<http://www.olsr.org/docs/README-Olsr-Switch.html>, I got the following
error.

sendto(v4): Socket operation on non-socket

I created a small patch to resolve this problem, as shown below. However
I am not very sure whether it has any side effects. Any inputs are
welcome. Thank you.

Regards,
Vignesh
