 On 64-bit Windows, SOCKET of type UINT_PTR, which is 64-bit, whereas int
 is only 32-bit.  To solve this, Libevent 2 defines a type
 "evutil_socket_t" which is SOCKET on windows and int elsewhere.  We should
 revise all of our libevent callbacks that receive sockets so that they
 receive evutil_socket_t instead, when libevent2 is present.  If we are
 built against libevent 1.4, however, we should just #define
 evutil_socket_t to int.
