I have used this series in my tree for 6 weeks without negative
sideffects. I haven't tested IPv6, though.

Here's an updated commit message with my ACK:

Refactor winsock initialization into a separate function

The winsock library must be initialized. Since gethostbyname() is the
first function that calls into winsock, it was overridden to do the
initialization. This refactoring helps the next patch, where other
functions can be called earlier.
