Hello, The guys in the gnutls project mentioned that I should forward this on to you. I don't know the structure or layout of gnulib, so I don't know how cleanly what I'm talking about applies to the project, so please take it in context of gnutls. Here was my message to the gnutls folks:
A build using the latest from MinGW-w64 fails with a redefinition error b/c it finds socklen_t in two places. Configure finds both winsock2.h and ws2tcipip.h and when it finds winsock.h, it does a "typedef int socklen_t" in gl/sys_socket.in.h but this is already defined in ws2tcpip.h. When I specified -D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0501 for Windows XP or higher support only, it compiled cleanly. It looks like a guard is needed at line 154 of gl/sys_socket.in.h - something along the lines of (this has not been tested): #ifndef @HAVE_WS2TCPIP_H@ typedef int socklen_t; #endif Thanks, - David Hoyt
