I haven't been able to work on it recently.

When I last touched it, I had the basic socket functions (socket, connect,
bind, accept, listen, recv, recvfrom, send, sendto, close) and a few netdb
functions (gethostby{name,addr}) working.  In this case, "working" means I
could compile a program with gcc and link it with my tcp32.dll and everything
would work.

I also began integrating my socket library into gcc/2's C library, so that
read(), write(), and close() will work on stream sockets.  This also seemed to
work, but certainly wasn't complete.

I do not guarantee that the approach I am using will work in all cases; my
simple test program works but that doesn't really prove anything.

I will try to get some kind of release together soon.  I realize that a lot of
people want this thing and that I've been promising it for a while.  I think I
have just about used up my excuse of personal problems.. :-)
