[Simh] 4.0.0 Beta socket problem on RaspberryPi/raspbian

[Timothe Litt]

FWIW, errno 97 would be address family not supported.  (It would be nice 
if strerror()  (or the thread-safe strerror_r() if available) was called 
instead of just printing the decimal error number.)

You didn't say which OS you're running on your RPi.  The default is debian.

You probably have an IPv6 configuration issue; the new simh code tries 
to use it if it thinks its available.  From a quick look at the code, 
you may want to replace the 13900 port number with your ip (v4 
1.2.3.4:13900 or v6 [2001:db8::123]:13900).

But I'll leave further diagnosis to Mark, who checked-in the changes to 
support IPv6.  He'll probably need the commands that you used to build simh.
