Re: Removing dependency to wsock32.lib when compiling code on WIndows

I marked this patch as ready for committer. I confirmed:

* The patch content is correct.

* The patch applies cleanly. Running "grep -lir wsock32 ." after applying
the patch shows that wsock32.lib is no longer used.

* The binaries can be built with MSVC 2008 Express. I didn't try to build
on MinGW.

* The regression tests pass ("vcregress check").

However, I wonder if some DLL entries in dlls[] in
src/interfaces/libpq/win32.c should be removed. winsock.dll should
definitely be removed, because it is for 16-bit applications. I don't know
about the rest. Especially, wsock32n.dll and mswsock.dll may also be
obsolete libraries from their names. Could you look into this and revise
the patch if possible? But I don't mind if you do so.
