Re: [PATCH v2] Windows: improve performance by avoiding a static dependency on ws2_32.dll and advapi32.dll

"git status" calls ntohs function, which was loaded from ws2_32.dll
I've noticed that bswap.h contains implementation of ntohl htonl functions,
so I decided to add implementation of ntohs htons functions, which is
pretty trivial.
After that call to "git status" doesn't load ws2_32.dll

I am still not convinced of that patch, because the timings are still
missing.

Ciao,

Oops, sorry for the noise (again).

The following commands were run and timed, the
best of five results is shown:

for i in `seq 1 10`;
do
	git status
	git log -n2
	git diff
done

before:
real    0m30.024s
user    0m0.105s
sys     0m0.425s

after:
real    0m29.578s
user    0m0.105s
sys     0m0.318s

The runtime of 'make -j2 test' went down from 35:19min
to 32:39min on my machine.
