qemu_co_sendv_recvv() uses socket_error() internally to access the
return code. This is defined as errno on POSIX, but as WSAGetLastError()
on Windows.

You should probably either use socket_error() here, or change
qemu_co_sendv_recvv() to return a negative error code instead of -1.

The same here.
