My analysis of the problem was quite weak, sorry On MY machine, ifconfig still returns "inet adr" with only one "d". 
Actually, the problem is a problem of locale. In your english ( I presume) version, it has two "d" but in mine which is a french version of Maverick, "inet adr" has only one "d". 
What is the best way to test a string taking into account the user's locale ? Besides, what if you have two valid connections ? A wired one and a wireless one ? The function used only returns the first "inet addr" found in ifconfig. I suppose Julien will have to change the algorithm he used.
