This looks pretty bletcherous --- plastering #ifdef WIN32 all over the
code is exactly not the way to be fixing this sort of thing. Maybe we
should go the other direction of "typedef int SOCKET" on Unix then use
SOCKET everywhere.
BTW, isn't this porting project showing the shortsightedness of using
WIN32 as the its-Windows platform symbol? The case that you're
worried about here is certainly not "WIN32".
