Even MS-Windows XP is EOLed already, isn't it?  What older MS-Windows release
should be supported?  I guess MS-Windows 2000?  Do you mean it seriously?

The patch of my attempt for gnulib import of getaddrinfo had 1.5MB and it was
not easy due to conflict with all the existing MS-Windows #ifs in GDB code, is
it really worth those EOLed OSes?

I am really asking, the gnulib import does not seem right to me.  This is also
why the IPv6 support has been waiting for removal of the old OSes (like HP-UX).
