OK I checked in a "fix" for that and commented out
//#ifdef _WIN32
//#define inet_pton ws_inet_pton
//#define inet_ntop ws_inet_ntop
//#endif
//
//WS_DLL_PUBLIC int inet_pton(int af, const char *src, void *dst);
In inet_v6defs.h to get further and got:
capture_sync.c(662): warning C4311: 'type cast': pointer truncation from 'HANDLE' to 'int'
capture_sync.c(667): warning C4311: 'type cast': pointer truncation from 'HANDLE' to 'long'
capture_sync.c(670): warning C4311: 'type cast': pointer truncation from 'HANDLE' to 'long'

capture_sync.c(2170): warning C4312: 'type cast': conversion from 'int' to 'HANDLE' of greater size
use gintptr here too, or use intptr_t or?
