[Openais] 255.255.255.255 != broadcast for interface on all platforms....

Resolving the broadcast address for FreeBSD. Two possible solutions:
1) 255.255.255.255 doesn't receive any special handling by FreeBSD
(and a handful of other OS'es, iirc) in terms of binding an
interface's broadcast address. Any thoughts on adding a broadcast
config directive?
2) Other option is to resolve the correct broadcast in user space.
Are there any patches kicking around that do either of these
remedies? -sc
