Sorry for that, haven't tested TSVN on Win2k for some time.
It's fixed in the next nightly build.
Explanation:
With the Vista SDK, it's necessary to define _WIN_NT_ to something
higher or equal to 0x0501 (meaning: XP or higher) for IPv6 support to
work. And with VS2008, without this it won't even compile properly.
That's why I've set that define a few revisions back.
The problem with that define was then that it used the IPv6 functions
directly, and those functions are not available on Win2k. It's therefore
necessary to include another header file which forces again to use the
stub functions: on Win2k it falls back to the old plain IPv4 functions
(meaning: IPv6 won't work - but that's expected), but on XP and higher
it will use the proper IPv6 functions.
