Did you add '-lwsock32' to LIBS in the Makefile? shutdown and the other
socket functions are defined there. I just compiled bsflite and imcomm
(current sources from CVS) with a gcc 3.4.5 cross-compiler and it seems
to work.

Note, however, that sendim might not work at all in Windows. It could
work with cygwin out of the box, but with mingw you'll have to change
the path from which it gets the config file, or hardcode the
username/password, if you wish. Looking at the rest of the source it
looks as though it'll work, but I have not tried it myself.
