For many systems, getting multicast to work requires only that you
add a route for 224.0.0/4 (for your local network interface).

If multicast doesn't work, then the code uses "gethostname()"
followed by "gethostbyname()" to try to figure out your IP address.
If neither method works, then I suppose you could hard-wire your
address into the implementation of "ourSourceAddressForMulticast()".
