That seems unsafe in general. What if _WIN32_WINNT is already defined,
but to something lower than 0x0501?Might be better to do:
#ifdef _WIN32_WINNT
#undef _WIN32_WINNT
#endif
instead?
+#ifndef WIN64#define _WINSOCKAPI_
Did you verify that that's not needed on win64-msvc? (my VM isn't
booted right now, so I didn't actually test it)
Other than those comments, looks good to me.
