It turns out that absolutely everything that was including
windows.h was doing so needlessly; our headers don't need it,
so we should just include winsock2.h (since that's where
struct timeval is defined).
Pre-2.0 code will use the old headers, which include windows.h
for them, so we aren't breaking source compatibility with 1.4.
This solves the bug where we were leaving WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
defined, in roughly the same way that buying an automobile
solves the question of what to give your coachman for boxing
day.
This was never supposed to be an exposed API, so its name should have been
more like _EVUTIL_CHECK_FMT. But it was only used in one place, so let's
just eliminate it.
We already emulate most of the other useful bits of stdint.h, and
we seem to have started to use uintptr_t in a few places throughout
the code. Let's make sure we can continue to do so even on backwards
platforms that don't do C99.
The fairness algorithms are not the best, not every bufferevent type
is supported, and some of the locking tricks here are simply absurd.
Still, this code should be a good first step.
The entry points are evutil_getaddrinfo and evdns_getaddrinfo respectively.
There are fairly extensive unit tests.
I believe this code conforms to RFC3493 pretty closely, but there are
probably more issues. It should get tested on more platforms.
This code means we can dump the well-intentioned but weirdly-implemented
bufferevent_evdns and evutil_resolve code.

b) niels and nick have been comaintainers for a while
c) saying "all rights reserved" when you then go on to explicitly
disclaim some rights is sheer cargo-cultism.

Use internal implementation for evutil_timercmp() everywhere, to avoid bugs when the platform timercmp() has never heard of <= or >=. Also, replace timercmp() usage in min_heap.c with call to evutil_timercmp().
