[Vis5d-users] Re: Couldn't bind socket to name

Yes, as a matter of fact.  I was getting the same error on Mac OS X.  The solution for me was in the file analysis.c, where it turned out that OS X had the same behavior as IBM RS/6000.  Using -Dibm in CFLAGS uses the alternate code (which looks for a truncated socket name).  Maybe that will work for you, too.  (What is your system?)  By the way, this was with vis5d.4.3, but it probably carries over to vis5d+.
