Strange. Why did you get this problem and how come others have managed to
build libcurl without this change? Is it related to what VS or Windows
version you run?
MSDN reference states that (get|free)addrinfo functions are implemented in
Ws2_32.dll so I have no idea how the library could be built without
ws2_32.lib (which is its import library). My system:
Vista SP2
VS 2008 (VC9)
Windows SDK 6.0A
wsock32.dll is present in system32 but it does not export these functions.
It seems it's just another case of a messy system.
getaddrinfo() is only present in some systems and compilers, so for those that
have getaddrinfo() I figure a different lib is needed than for those systems
that don't have getaddrinfo()...
So, I have no good suggestion on how to solve this other than perhaps use
cmake for the windows build.
