Relying on 3rd party libraries could cause potential licensing issues (if
any part of any used 3rd party library is not BSD-compatible).
As long as the code changes are fairly small (eg changing close() to
closesocket()), they should be fairly easy to test and bugs could be
avoided.

Doing it yourself isn't going to make it any easier. Actually, it's
much more likely to result in more bugs.
