Libtool want's the package to declare that it does not have any
undefined symbols.  But if this package does have undefined
symbols in it, then it can't be build (easily) on Cygwin.

You can try to feed -no-undefined to libtool when it links, telling
libtool that the library does not have any undefined symbols,
libtool will then at least try to create a DLL.  I would add it
to libsocket___la_LDFLAGS.

Cheers,
