This is an old and known issue. "ns_sockopen" is a somewhat deprecated 
call, which was used mostly for  the regression test (most NaviServer 
applications will work happily without it), so there was seemingly never 
a high urgency to fix this. I am surprised that this works with 
MSVC2019/32bit - but maybe this was the "lucky" part. I would not see 
this as showstopper for the upcoming release.

Cool!

I have added the mingw changes to the code base and added
your instructions to the README file ... and placed rc3 to sourceforge

https://sourceforge.net/projects/naviserver/files/naviserver/4.99.20/

If nothing else shows up, i'll finish the release in the next few days.

Oleg, many thanks for testing and the good suggestions.
