Florian Westphal ed72bf4ceb resolve.c: fix valgrind 'uninitialized memory' warning 
fix the following warning generated by valgrind if ipv6 is enabled:

Syscall param write(buf) points to uninitialised byte(s)
   at 0x4000982: (within /lib/ld-2.9.so)
   by 0x80681A8: Resolve_Name (resolve.c:477)
   by 0x805439F: Conn_Handler (conn.c:1658)
   by 0x804AA7C: main (ngircd.c:331)

The warning is because ng_ipaddr_t can be a union, and only the
necessary parts are initialised.  The callers know what part
of the union is valid, so this is not a bug.

                     ngIRCd - Next Generation IRC Server

                        (c)2001-2007 Alexander Barton,

               ngIRCd is free software and published under the
                   terms of the GNU General Public License.

                                -- README --


I. Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ngIRCd is an Open Source server for the Internet Relay Chat (IRC), which
is developed and published under the terms of the GNU General Public
Licence (URL: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.html). ngIRCd means "next
generation IRC daemon", it's written from scratch and not deduced from the
"grandfather of IRC daemons", the daemon of the IRCNet.

Please see the INSTALL document for installation and upgrade information!


II. Status
~~~~~~~~~~~

It is not the goal of ngIRCd to implement all the nasty behaviours of the
original ircd, but to implement most of the useful commands and semantics
specified by the RFCs.

In the meantime ngIRCd should be quite feature complete and stable to be
used in real IRC networks.

Implemented IRC-commands are:

ADMIN, AWAY, CHANINFO, CONNECT, DIE, DISCONNECT, ERROR, HELP, INVITE, ISON,
JOIN, KICK, KILL, LINKS, LIST, LUSERS, MODE, MOTD, NAMES, NICK, NJOIN, NOTICE,
OPER, PART, PASS, PING, PONG, PRIVMSG, QUIT, REHASH, RESTART, SERVER, SQUIT,
STATS, TIME, TOPIC, TRACE, USER, USERHOST, VERSION, WALLOPS, WHO, WHOIS,
WHOWAS.


III. Features (or: why use ngIRCd?)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- no problems with servers which have dynamic IP addresses
- simple, easy understandable configuration file,
- freely published open-source C source code,
- ngIRCd will be developed on in the future.
- wide field of supported platforms, including AIX, A/UX, FreeBSD, HP-UX,
  IRIX, Linux, Mac OS X, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, and Windows with Cygwin.


IV. Documentation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

More documentation can be found in the "doc/" directory and the homepage of
the ngIRCd: <http://ngircd.barton.de/>.

the newest information about the ngIRCd and the most recent ("stable")
releases there.

If you are interested in the latest development versions (which are not
always stable), then please read the section about "GIT" on the homepage and
the file "doc/GIT.txt" which describes the use of GIT, the version control
system used by ngIRCd (homepage: http://git.or.cz/).


VI. Bugs
~~~~~~~~
