Thanks for the report.
When the system does not declare inet_pton,
gnulib arranges for it to be in gnulib/lib/arpa/inet.h.
Since network_conf.c does include <arpa/inet.h>, and -I
directives point to the containing directory, it should
use that file.

Please run "make distclean" (or start from a fresh checkout), then run
the usual ./autogen.sh command, to ensure that you don't have any stale,
generated files.  If the problem persists, please post the contents of
the generated gnulib/lib/arpa/inet.h.
