Yes please.
Unfortunately, this doesn't get us over the IPv6 hump on Windows, not
even if we include ws2tcpip.h.
It appears that we need either to pull in getaddrinfo from ws2_32.dll
(which Windows platforms have this? It should be available for them all,
according to MSDN). or make out own routines decipher ipv6 addresses.
So far today I haven't had any luck with the former.
