Sorry, I can't back this claim. In my tests, 'make -j2 test' did not go
down. My timings were between 13:40min and 13:50min with and without the
patch, and I tried multiple times.

For the MinGW version, I'd rather not apply this patch. People interested
in optimizing the MSVC version could link with /delayload:ws_32.dll to
achieve the same effect without any change to the code.
