On the mac, I can't get jscoverage-server to bind to an address. When I compile 
it and run it, I always get:

jscoverage-server: could not bind to address

Debugging it a bit, I found that the problem is that the sockaddr structure was 
not zero'd out and therefore had garbage in it when passed to bind. The quick 
fix is to bzero the structure right after declaring it on the stack.

On line 174 of http-server.c add this line:

  bzero(&a, sizeof(a));

This fixes the problem and jscoverage is now able to bind to the port.
