Subject: [PATCH] Avoid an type-punned pointer aliasing pbm

Fix this warning, there is no need to use an intermediate,
different array pointer.
network.c: In function 'getIPv6Addr':
network.c:50: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
* src/util/network.c: avoid an intermediary pointer cast
