IN6_IS_ADDR_UNSPECIFIED on most systems is defined as a macro that
expects a struct in6_addr* argument.

In one instance we are passing the right address but using a wrong type.
Fix this invocation by properly passing the right pointer.

This issue might become more critical on systems implementing
IN6_IS_ADDR_UNSPECIFIED as a function rather than a macro.

This happens if you try to compile openvpn with the Android NDK but
without TARGET_ANDROID but with TARGET_LINUX.



#define IN6_IS_ADDR_UNSPECIFIED(a) \
  ((((a)->s6_addr32[0]) == 0) && \
   (((a)->s6_addr32[1]) == 0) && \
   (((a)->s6_addr32[2]) == 0) && \
   (((a)->s6_addr32[3]) == 0))


So you get

I have not tested this beyond "openvpn --show-gateway", and that one
still works :-) - also, we've discussed this on IRC before.

Your patch has been applied to the master and release/2.5 branch (bugfix).

2.4 does not contain the offending code.
