    So I've disabled this feature/patch for the time being because `inet_pton()` is not available on Windows XP and yes, Synchronet still worked on Windows XP before this change.Would it be possible to use `getaddrinfo()` and some other IPv4/v6 happy address parsing function instead?Another possibility would be to dynamically load "WS2_32.DLL" and get the address of the "inet_pton" function using Windows calls (and fail gracefully if it can't be found), but that might be more work than just using known-supported function, like `getaddrinfo()`. --- SBBSecho 3.11-Linux

    There's an inet_pton() implementation in sockwrap.
