[ros-dev] [ros-diffs] [fireball] 37229: - Update the _ros.diff. Usual changes are there (unfortunately incompatibilites in Wine still exist, RpcMgmtWaitForServerListen is still not implemented there, and their dependency on unix sockets is totall

Yes, I certainly understand Wine's position... Be it me, I would do  
some kind of a simple wrapper, OR, check why Wine's implementation of  
winsock is so slow.

So, it's hiding a bug in winsock implementation ;)
