That's fine. I was just thinking that the other way MIGHT be slightly faster
because the compiler already has fromlen (which we know is zero) in a register.
Your way is easier to understand though.
Thanks!

Thanks for the patch!
Although:
+ msg.msg_namelen = fromlen ? *fromlen : (socklen_t)fromlen;
why use (socklen_t)fromlen, i.e. the address of some variable? I've checked
in just:
msg.msg_namelen = fromlen ? *fromlen : 0;
instead if that's alright.
