Greetings:
I would like you to review recent changes that I made to our native 
socket code for the purpose of eliminating compiler warnings.

These changes boil down to passing parameters with the correct type to 
various system calls as well as one "opportunistic" change that corrects 
the implementation of the macro: FT2INT64, that's used by windows:
  #define FT2INT64(ft) \
-        ((long)(ft).dwHighDateTime << 32 | (long)(ft).dwLowDateTime)
+        ((INT64)(ft).dwHighDateTime << 32 | (INT64)(ft).dwLowDateTime)

The webrev image is located at:

Thank you!
