Couple of errors here on Win32 with MSVC.NET.
The inet_pton4/6 uses u_char, MSVC doesn't have a u_char defined. Probably
the easiest way to fix this, rather than adding a portability typedef type
of thing, would just be to change inet_pton to use unsigned char.

Also, winsock.h must be included in inet_pton if MSVC is in use.

Lastly, a #define for EAFNOSUPPORT is needed in MSVC since MS likes the WSA
prefix. Attached is a little patch to make the above mentioned changes. It
shouldn't effect building on other OSes, the only non-#ifdef'ed change I
made was u_char -> unsigned char, but I don't anticipate that causing
problems, but testing never hurts :)
