That is intentional. FLTK has optional network support, and since  
wsock32 exists on all Windows machines anyway, we thought there is no  
harm in linking with it. But users complained that customers felt  
spied on, because they found FLTK programs linking to a communication  
library, even for programs that do not use sockets. FLTK 1.3 no only  
links to wsock32 if required. It does that transparently, so no  
changes needed.
