Experimental result:

close() closes MSVCRT handle, but not socket handle, and closesocket()
close only the socket handle, so closesocket() must be:

#define closesocket(s) \
         { \
         (SOCKET_ERROR == closesocket(_get_osfhandle(s)) ? \
         (errno = WSAGetLastError()), -1 : 0); \
         _free_osfhnd(s); \
         _osfile(s) = 0; \
         }

_free_osfhnd is called internally from close().

There is something about _open_osfhandle(), _get_osfhandle() on MSVC manuals.

The sources are distributed with Visual Studio and the CRT is redistributable,

May be, but at this time I have not time to investigate, in the next week I
will take a look about.
