[PATCH,HURD] sendto: do not crash when addr is NULL


Hi,

currently, sendto() crashes when the specified addr is NULL; the 
attached patch fixes it making sendto() with NULL addr behave as it 
would be a plain send().

Thanks,

Hurd: sendto: do not crash when addr is NULL

Work also when the specified addr is NULL; simplify also the usage of err.
