The reason why the problem isn't going away when you switch is because
when WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN is defined then windows.h doesn't include
winsock.h, so it doesn't really matter which order they're in there. My
guess is before including curl/curl.h you included windows.h or
something else that includes winsock.h so when curl includes winsock2.h
it gives you the warning. As far as I know we're only including those
headers socklen_t. If you want to get rid of the warning you'll have to
include winsock2.h before any other include that may pull in winsock.h.
There's probably a better solution but at the moment I can't think of
anything.
