Abe,

Look in winsup/cygwin/ChangeLog between "Bump DLL minor number to 22" and
"Bump DLL minor number to 23"...  You could also look in the cygwin-cvs
list archives between 3/9 and 3/13.

FWIW, I see the following socket-related changes:
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2003-q1/msg00359.html>
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2003-q1/msg00352.html>
<http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-cvs/2003-q1/msg00350.html>
but I might have missed something...

Hope this helps,
	Igor
