Understanding that cygwin32_getsockopt is not yet supported, I would 
try to use the native WinSock functions instead of their cygwin32_ 
counterparts to build Python. Well, I read the FAQ an followed the recent discussion 
on this topic, but it is still not clear, how can I do that.

Could somebody explain what headers (sys/socket.h, 
winsock.h, Windows32/Sockets.h or some modified version of these?),
what definitions (__INSIDE_CYGWIN32__, __INSIDE_CYGWIN32_NET__?),
and what library (-lwsock32?) should (not) I use?

Thanks in advance,
Geza Groma
