I may have been wrong about that problem being connected to the loading
time - it is connected with the init_winsock function being called (the
standard advice is to call it at startup, but we delay it in Emacs until
networking is actually used for the first time). It should be easy to
test this problem - disable any network devices you have, and configure
a modem connection (you don't need to connect it to a phone line).
