Re: bug in socket.cpp

[David Sugar]

From what I gather, depending on which version of the platform sdk you 
have installed with VC++ 6.0 (whether the one it originally comes with, 
or the latest one), you either MUST include windows.h before, or after 
winsock2.h or everything will break. and there is no easy way to find 
out which you have until you include some header!  You can from what I 
gather install the current platform sdk for use with vc6.  This also 
gives you support for building apps that use ipv6 with vc6 and some 
other "missing" api's.
