That could be done, but then that'd break existing programs that use
CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET where long and long long are not the same size. So no,
that is unfortunately not a good fix.

I think a better fix is probably to introduce a CURLINFO_LASTSOCKET
replacement that simply returns a pointer to a curl_socket_t instead of a
long.
