+    - lib: Fix the value returned from get_mac_addresses() on Macintosh 
+        computers.  It has returned the value of kernResult, which is 0
+        on success, instead of true for success, since the routine was 
+        first written in November 2008.  This causes the client to 
+        generate a new random CPID every time the client is launched.
