Well, those are real constants, so they probably are fully contained in
the static link library, no need to dynamically resolve them. Note that
the frontend libpq indeed links to wsock32, just as Mkvcbuild.pm does
for both frontend and backend...

It might be that ipv6 never worked for mingw and cygwin, and in6addr_any
just resolved to some magic thunk --auto-import created...
