Thanks, that was my expectation.

To be clear, I ran WSL just to assert that the networking tests are correct & that they pass on Linux ✅.

❌When it comes to Windows, unfortunately I wasn’t able to find a baseline build where the network tests are passing ☹🤷‍♂️

Running the tests using the official Windows binaries for Emacs 28.1 fail ❌
Same applies when running the tests from my dev build of Emacs, using the latest master branch ❌
And of course, same applies to my patched Emacs that has UDP support ❌

So my conclusion thus far is that the network tests didn’t pass on Windows for a while now, and I have no idea if our UDP patch is introducing regressions since I don’t have a good baseline.

The environment should be native Windows, not WSL. WSL is Unix
running in a VM.

As for "using MSYS2", if that boils down to invoking Emacs from the
MSYS2 Bash prompt, it is still native Windows, and should not affect
the tests.
