Related to this bug report, olsrd does not compile on Mac OS X > 10.6:

The problem is related to this comment in the Mac OS X networking headers:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/xnu/xnu-1699.24.8/bsd/netinet6/in6.h
/*
* RFC 3542 define the following socket options in a manner incompatible
* with RFC 2292:
* IPV6_PKTINFO
* IPV6_HOPLIMIT
* IPV6_NEXTHOP
* IPV6_HOPOPTS
* IPV6_DSTOPTS
* IPV6_RTHDR
*
* To use the new IPv6 Sockets options introduced by RFC 3542
* the constant __APPLE_USE_RFC_3542 must be defined before
* including <netinet/in.h>
*
* To use the old IPv6 Sockets options from RFC 2292
* the constant __APPLE_USE_RFC_2292 must be defined before
* including <netinet/in.h>
*
* Note that eventually RFC 3542 is going to be the
* default and RFC 2292 will be obsolete.
*/
So the question I have is, does src/bsd using RFC2292 or RFC3542 IPv6 options? Then I can commit the fix.
