It looks like Visual C++ 6.0 doesn't come with definitions for socklen_t. If
having c-ares isn't a requirement, you should be able to switch back to ADNS by
commenting out C_ARES_DIR in config.nmake. If you really want c-ares, you'll
have to have a PSDK that supports VC6 _and_ includes socklen_t. According to
http://www.winpcap.org/pipermail/winpcap-users/2007-June/001918.html, the most
recent is the Windows Server 2003 PSDK.

I've added a note about this to config.nmake. Should we try to handle this
automatically?
