Possibly the easiest way is to download the binary I compiled a few days ago
here: http://codemonger.org/files/ws2_32.dll.so.bz2 but I don't promise it will
work on your system (I'm running amd64 Gentoo).  Also, I did change the buffer
size, so that isn't the same as what I'm running now.

Otherwise, you'll need to compile wine.  I would first make sure you can
compile it successfully on your system (I'm sure there's a HOWTO on that
somewhere).  You should either pass WS_LOTRO_HACK_BUF_LEN=128 to the configure
script or just edit the patch file and change "0x400" to "128".  So your call
to configure might look something like this:

CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe" CPPFLAGS="-DWS_LOTRO_HACK_BUF_LEN=128" ./configure

Next, copy socket.c.lotro_hack.patch into the root of the sources, change to
that directory and run this run this command:

patch -p0 < socket.c.lotro_hack.patch

You should see no errors.  Also, this patch is intended for wine v1.1.0.  After
patching, recompile (run make again).  Then, assuming that didn't fail, figure
out where ws2_32.dll.so is installed on your system, make a backup of it and
then replace it with one that gets generated from your compile (it will be
under dlls/ws2_32).  Mine is under /usr/lib32/wine.  Also, on 32 bit systems,
it might not end with .so (might be .sl, but maybe I'm thinking of HPUX).

Daniel
