[libmicrohttpd] sockets with IP_TRANSPARENT option

[Yoann Juet]

Dear all,

We are using libmicrohttpd on lightweight web servers. They intercept 
ingoing http requests transparently proxied by tproxy kernel module. For 
libmicrohttpd based servers to be able to respond to packets redirected 
with the Netfitler tproxy target, the IP_TRANSPARENT option should be 
enabled on the socket.

So far, we have patched the code in daemon.c to enable this feature. A 
simple quick and dirty hack. I wonder if there's a cleaner way to 
achieve the same thing. Any suggestion or feedback about what could be 
done to improve this situation ?

Regards,
