We need to keep in mind that the purpose of the examples is to show how to use
libcurl. I therefore think we can leave some leeway in some of the portability
areas in the cases where the real solution is large and the "good enough"
solution is smallish.

This is meant as a general comment, not really pointing out these particular
changes as I haven't reviewed them in detail.
