Sorry, I don't understand this comment. fd is indeed a file descriptor, but ioctlsocket's first argument is a SOCKET object, which is an unsigned int, and we get it from a call to `socket' or some such. So where do you see a potential problem? And anyway, I think wget calls ioctlsocket for every connection; if so, then most of those calls succeed, because the binary I built works and is quite capably of fetching via HTTP. So these problems seem to be triggered by something specific in those 3 tests. > > . 7 tests fail due to wrong timestamp of the file.

OK, I will try to look into them, time permitting. > $ cd tests > $ perl Test-c.px Thanks, that will have to do.
