winsock2 header missing function prototypes

Hey,
While trying out example code from msdn covering windows sockets, I
ran into a problem with the winsock2.h header. The example only
included winsock2.h and used the socket() function. While compiling
with winelib, gcc complained that socket is not a function. I looked
through winsock2.h and couldn't find the prototype. It turns out the
prototype is in winsock.h. I then checked to see if winsock2.h
included winsock.h, and it turns out it does, but with
__WINE_WINSOCK2__ defined. This prevents the prototypes from being
included from winsock.h because they are protected by an if
!defined(__WINE_WINSOCK2__). Right above this block is the note:
/*
* Prototypes
*
* Remember to keep this section in sync with the
* "Winsock Function Typedefs" section in winsock2.h.
*/
I looked at the Winsock Function Typedefs from winsock2.h and they are
just a bunch of typedefs (of course). If we can compile this program
in windows, shouldn't we be able to compile it with winelib/make too?
Is there anything I'm doing wrong or should something be fixed in the
headers?
Thanks,
James Hawkins
