Wrong comment for bitncmp function in network.c

I am not sure it worth reporting but it took me a while to find out
what is wrong with comparing two values returned from
the bitncmp function. It does not return -1, 1 or 0 as it is written
on the comment when n % 8 == 0.

Yeah, should say "<0, >0, or 0", I guess.  Will fix, thanks.
