With MinGW, I get this instead:

  D:\usr\eli\data>socket_test
  Server listening on port 2213.
  Attempting client connection...success.

Do we have to have a failure in this case?  Or is the above a valid
outcome?

Of course, I needed to hack the code quite a lot to get it compile on
MS-Windows; the result is attached below.  Maybe I broke the code
while doing that?

(I don't think calling 'connect' after 'listen' is supposed to work;
on Windows it predictably fails with EINVAL, as documented on MSDN.)
