48	Improved support for mingw+msys	guest	Sam Hocevar	"Attached patch includes the changes for adding support to mingw+msys.
Unfortunately, the ""make install"" still fails with this message:

        done

Description of changes:
caca/caca.h
caca/caca0.h
declaration of dllimport and dllexport is wrong.
I fixed it and now the symbols are imported/exported without problems.
I'm using GCC 3.4.5 and it complained about the ""weak"" attribute into macro CACA_ALIAS, so I adjusted it to be available only if you are using GCC 4 and newer.

tools/makefont.c
the htonl() and htons() are available in Windows Sockets.
So I added the test on HAVE_WINSOCK2_H.
Hopefully, the configure script already checks for the presence of winsock2.h
I added the macro NEED_WINSOCK2 because we must initialize winsocks, but only if we have no other choice.
For example, cygwin supports both arpa/inet.h and netinet/in.h beside winsock2.h: in that case winsocks initialization is not needed at all and it would cause troubles if handled in a different manner (WSAStartup function won't be found at link stage without compiling with winsock2.h because its true name is WSAStartup@8).
