commit    01ec41a5fe4aa590dde18a2c551432aa1925caea
Author:   Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>

    Fall back to unsigned int, not int, for socklen_t.
    
    It's a coin toss which of these is a better default assumption.
    However, of the machines we have in the buildfarm, the only ones
    relying on the fallback socklen_t definition are ancient HPUX,
    and on that platform unsigned int is the right choice.  Minor
    tweak to ee3a1a5b6.
