How is that implemented?  I don't see it in the code.  Where is
that implemented below?

Also the two tests for ws32_handle and wsock32_handle look reversed.

cgf

LoadDLLinitfunc (wsock32)
{
  extern void wsock_init ();
  HANDLE h;

  if ((h = LoadLibrary ("wsock32.dll")) != NULL)
    wsock32_handle = h;
  else if (!wsock32_handle)
    api_fatal ("could not load wsock32.dll.  Is TCP/IP installed?");
  else
    return 0;           /* Already done by another thread? */

  if (!ws2_32_handle) 	/* IS THIS CORRECT? */
    wsock_init ();

  return 0;
}

LoadDLLinitfunc (ws2_32)
{
  extern void wsock_init ();
  HANDLE h;

  if ((h = LoadLibrary ("ws2_32.dll")) == NULL)
    return 0;          /* Already done or not available. */
  ws2_32_handle = h;

  if (!wsock32_handle) 	/* IS THIS CORRECT? */
    wsock_init ();

  return 0;
}
