Luigi:

We on the SCTP team ;-) have always worked under the
constraint of "scrubbing out" with un-ifdef loads of stuff for

- Windows
- MacOS-X
- User-Space Implementation
- Panda (translated IOS-XR)

Now there is a HUGE amount of cruft that has some ugly ifdef's in it which
I was told way back was a no-no.... (I was also told unifdef is your
friend ;-D)

Anyway.. I would be more than glad to bring back the "full" code if
folks would all agree..  it actually makes it a lot easier when you
are debugging to have the precise line number instead of working between
two worlds ;-)

But of course we would have to get agreement from quite a few folks... but
I am game ;-)

New Revision: 208857

Log:
 Purge out a Windows def that somehow slipped
 past the scrubber.

i wonder if it makes sense to scrub away the code for other OS.
While I understand the rationale, seeing the whole code might have
several advantages:
- understand the constraints that other OS impose;
- learn what APIs are available in other OS;
- teach people how to write portable code;

cheers
