In runtime/cfuns.c the function ml_connect_inet is ifdef'd out for all BSD system except MIPS architectures. So just add something like `|| defined (i386bsd)' in line 466 and everything will work alright. (Of course you will have to rebuild your sml, cml and other executables after this change.) The eXene X window toolkit will run with this patch, but on my system most of the examples tend to thrash the system, since the resulting processes consume 12 to 14 MB memory.
