/* Changes:
 * 2010-02-25:
 *   set SO_REUSEADDR option to avoid leaking some windows resource.

 *   the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect 
 *   attempts."  Bleah.
 * 2007-04-25:
 *   preserve value of WSAGetLastError() on all error returns.
 * 2007-04-22:  (Thanks to Matthew Gregan <kinetik@flim.org>)
 *   s/EINVAL/WSAEINVAL/ fix trivial compile failure
 *   s/socket/WSASocket/ enable creation of sockets suitable as stdin/stdout
