OK. I'll try to understand (since I'm new to this) how binNMU is working
before asking for more help.

Thanks Petr, I totally missed the difference in definition for
__SOCKADDR_COMMON between linux and freebsd in bits/sockaddr.h since
netinet/in.h have same md5sum on both arch.
My fix put the family inet in the good place but not for a good reason.
I do an htons instead of changing the binding of sockaddr. I will rework
my patch and see if the result is OK.
I have put Ludovic and Reto in CC since they work on the packages
involved in these bugs (polyorb and gnat-4.4). But we shouldn't ask them
for help on freebsd architecture since they lack the time for this fix
and I'm willing to do it and learn from the occasion.
