Description (last modified by aquarius) (diff)
GNU Go compiles well on WinXP with socket support enabled but configure will not switch it on - you have to hack config.h if you want it.
Found on WinXP with GNU mingw/msys/gcc. I bet that cygwin is also affected. No clue about VC build process.
Possible solution: If the config test for unix sockets should fail, just run a config test that resembles the WINxy part of the #ifdef magic in interface/main.c .
Things turned out to be even simpler: Three more lines in the existing test make it work on mingw/msys.
See attached patch for configure.in.

The purpose of worksforme is to mark tickets with unreproducible bugs or misunderstood non-bugs. I'm reopening this ticket, it will be closed as fixed when the patch has been added to the repository.
