Folks,

It seem there has started some dicussion after recent Daniel's patch to
config-win32.h file after my reports on the #curl channel.
Unfortunately, I've missed this thread(s) and accidentally cleaned from
my inbox.

Just to not to leave Yang Tse's post
(http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2007-12/0147.html)
without my response, I use cURL 7.17.1.

I agree, but it looks like the problem still exists regardless of this
patch because it's is more complex. As I've explained on my blog and
announced here in my previous post, there are two different cases to handle:

1. Windows Vista + Visual C++ 2008 + Windows SDK
   -> libcurl built with use of WSAPoll

2. Windows XP (or Windows Server 2003) + Visual C++ 2008 + Windows SDK
   -> libcurl built using old non-WSAPoll implementation

Cheers
