One more thing: To my knowledge, there shouldn't be any problems
when linking to winsock and winsock2 at the same time.

But in case you want to upgrade all packages to winsock2, please
check the following packages, too:  [1]

    aubio
    flac
    libshout
    nsis
    sdl_net
    sdl_sound
    wxwidgets
    xine-lib


Greets,
Volker


[1] FYI, I created this list using the following commands:

    make
    cd log
    grep -l wsock32 * |  grep -v w32api
