Hello.

	To be honest, I don't mind too much. libsocket comes with a libc patch that
adds the error codes. Given the fact that libsocket doesn't work under DOS, it
is probably best that libsocket isn't integrated into DJGPP.

	After I asked what people thought about integrating libsocket into DJGPP, I
got the impression that it would be OK. Maybe I'm just confused.

	BTW are error codes like ENOBUFS really networking-only errors? I've found
several occasions on which I wanted to use this error in my code in a
non-networking context. Is this wrong?
