I haven't fully reviewed this patch, but I'm going on vacation for two
weeks tomorrow, so I wanted to at least get back to you with my initial
observations.

1) It fails to pass the tests you've provided:

     [junit] Testcase: testPGinetIPv4InvalidAddresses(org.postgresql.test.net.PGinetTest):    FAILED
     [junit] An invalid address was turned into a PGinet object: 255.255.1/23' failed.
     [junit] junit.framework.AssertionFailedError: An invalid address was turned into a PGinet object: 255.255.1/23'
failed.
     [junit]     at org.postgresql.test.net.PGinetTest.testPGinetIPv4InvalidAddresses(PGinetTest.java:70)


2) It uses Inet[4|6]Address which is only available in JDK1.4+ while the
driver must compile with JDK1.2.
