[olsr-dev] [PATCH] Make olsrd almost compile on x86_64

The attached patch kills warnings and errors on Linux x86_64 with
gcc-4.0.2. It further kills other warnings.
The main problems were:
- pointer do not fit in ints/unsigned ints. We need long
  ints/unsigned long ints there.
- sizeof() is of type "unsigned long" which needs a different format in
  printf() or the supplied cast to "int" fitting to the format string.
- The patch declares "fromlen" variables correctly as "socklen_t" (and
  no longer as "size_t").
- x86_64 seems to need -fPIC everywhere, not just on the plugins.
- The patch adds parentheses around the GET_TIMESTAMP macro to avoid
  nasty bugs on e.g. "8 * GET_TIMESTAMP(xx)"
- The patch uses pointer arithmetic instead of cast to int, calculate
  and cast back to a pointer.

JFTSOC:
sizeof(char) = 1
sizeof(short int) = 2
sizeof(int) = 4
sizeof(long int) = 8
sizeof(long long int) = 8
sizeof(float) = 4
sizeof(double) = 8
sizeof(void *) = 8
on Linux/x86_64.
x86 is the same except:
sizeof(long int) = 4
sizeof(void *) = 4
