ws2tcpip.h is incompatible with winsock.h since winsock.h is only meant for supporting old Winsock 1.1 applications. A "modern" Winsock 2 application should include winsock2.h and ws2tcpip.h. > Next problem was "dereferencing pointer to incomplete type" in > line 728 of b_sock.c.

The functions getaddrinfo, getnameinfo and freeaddrinfo are only exported by ws2_32.dll beginning with Windows XP. There's an earlier implementation for Windows 2000 which is exported by a DLL called wship6.dll. There's no v6 for 9x or NT4. Consequentially, on native Windows (not Cygwin) the functions should not be linked against, but instead corresponding function pointers should be loaded at runtime from either ws2_32.dll or wship6.dll using LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress.
