602 error. Address family not supported by protocol family.

I'm working with libwww on a UNIX box running FreeBSD.  Everything seems to
be installed and configured properly, but libwww is unable to fetch
documents.  The error returned is "602 Connection Failed".  Below are the
results from running the 'get' script provided with libwww.

I've ran through the exact same install procedure on another box with
FreeBSD and it works fine.  Any ideas why this would occur? or how to
resolve it?

Thanks in advance.
