I'll look for some other way of making it work without any new patches, but
please, don't take away anything that's already there. I mean, wouldn't the
wrapper header basically have to be the equivalent of what you'd get by running
"cpp -D__USE_W32_SOCKETS < winsock2.h > winsock2_ada_wrapper.h", more or less?
