Andrey: On MinGW it's not defined, when on Cygwin is defined to only 64.

But I don't like at all your solution.
We must set MAXHOSTNAMELEN to the real maximum value supported from
Winsocks2 interface.
So MAXHOSTNAMELEN should be set to a value specified from a Windows include.
I don't know if 256 is safe for Windows function calls.

nt-2_5 can be build in "native" mode using MinGW or MS VisualStudio
6, and in "emulation" mode with Cygwin.

The MinGW build process is exactly like Cygwin.
