In the meantime the buildbot found out that MSVC6 without PSDK doesn't 
compile, as _WINSOCK2API_ is already defined with it - but 
sockaddr_storage is not.

After thinking about it, I've used WINVER for it (which basically should 
indicate the Platform SDK version), and checked in a change (you may 
have a look at the two files for details).

So at least it's working on MSVC 6 without PSDK and MSVC 2005EE with 
PSDK. The less recent PSDK probably still in use is MSVC 2002 (and 
therefore the most probable to fail), we'll see if someone reports a 
problem on it now (so we might need to tweak the WINVER check).


If you can verify MSVC 6 with PSDK, I think we're on the right way ...
