I've changed the lib/Makefile.vc6 according to the src/Makefile.vc6, so
that both of them links wsock32.lib instead of WS2_32.lib.

Right.
Anyway, I've fixed the Makefiles so that everything compiles withouth
changing the
libcurl.def (I've added timeval.c, etc...).

Attached you'll find the new Makefiles (if you care) and the diff output
(hope it's
 useful).

Since libcurl 7.11.1

I'm not referring to any particular change in the cookie module. It was
only a dubt caused by the fact
that my server application is not able to mantain the session anymore (it
mantains it using cookies).
when curl passes through my iPlanet proxy.
with curl 7.11.1, I get an 'Empty response from server', but the session is
correctly handled.

Thank you all for your help,

It uses winsock all right, just not winsock2. Did you try to link with the
winsock1 lib? (I'm out on thin ice here.)

I hope you read my reply to his mail regarding those symbols. Those
functions
are not public libcurl functions and thus they should not be provided by
libcurl. While that is an easy and quick work-around for these build
problems,
it is not a direction of development I approve of.

Besides, if you only want libcurl as a DLL, you can safely ignore any link
errors you get when you build the curl tool. Those link errors weren't for
the
lib, right?

Right, I remember!

Since when? There haven't been any major changes in the cookie area in
quite
some time, if you don't mean the two bug fixes I've did the last couple of
days.
