I almost shure it is not, because sys/socket.h already included in each of
the files but indirectly, thru libpq-be -> pqcomm, that include it on non
windows platforms. My guess is that tracking and elimination of double
includes of the same file is useful in general, because it at
least decrease compilation time.
