As i've said in my other message this code doesn't solve the strerror
problem. I'd suggest to separate these two problems because
1. Without errno patch the code doesn't even compile,
but with errno patch the code compiles and works.
2. Without strerror patch we will have the same result as before,
i.e. error code but no error message. IMHO, it is impossible
to get winsock error messages without some system or version
dependent hack.
