[Bug libgcj/16814] New: [mingw32] libgcj dpends on both winsock32dll and ws2_32.dll


Currently, the inclusion of windows.h in include/win32.h causes the windows 
socket interface to default to the 2.2 version, since windows.h includes the 
winsock2.h  header.  That's okay.  However, in libgcj.spec the lib order is:

*lib: -lgcj -lm     -lgdi32 -lwsock32 -lws2_32 

ie, the winsock version 1 library is linked in before the winsock 2 libary.  
Linking in both dll's is dangerous, especially if you assume the version 2 api 
but link in the version 1 library first.  See the article:
[257460] INFO: Header and Library Requirement When Set/Get Socket Options at 
the IPPROTO_IP Level
