[lug] source for bind(int sockfd, struct sockaddr *my_addr, int addrlen)

[Matt McIllece (1-3762)]

hmmm - that would explain why I wasn't able to find bind() where I was looking.  
But I don't understand how the man page is going to help me find the source code 
to bind().  In fact, I had already done a "man -S 2 bind" and didn't get 
anywhere.  Did I miss something?
