Carefully reorder your headers and/or define _WINSOCKAPI_ in
your CFLAGS.

MingW's <winsock2.h> has this at top:
#define _WINSOCK_H /* to prevent later inclusion of winsock.h */

Microsoft in their SDK where not so smart to foresee this problem.
<multi.h> could probably do something like:

#if !defined(_WINSOCKAPI_) && !defined(_WINSOCK_H)
#include <winsock2.h>
#endif

Do you provide a patch?

But, winsock2.h is only needed for the definition of fd_set.
So those args could just as well be 'void *' to avoid this problem.
Anything can be converted to 'void *' without a cast in C, right?
