Agreed. But then we should rename NO_SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM to
HAVE_SOCKETS_IN_FILE_SYSTEM (and negate every #if(n?)def that uses
it).

That's a good question.

But the base discussion is whether features should be tested by
feature tests, or lumped together into the WINDOWSNT, DOS_NT,
NS_IMPL_* bags. We've been saying for years that Emacs lisp programs
must not check the Emacs version, but features. The same reasoning
applies to checking HAVE_DAEMON vs. WINDOWSNT.
