Compile Problems with Harold's Server...

Well, as Rob quoted from thread.  It looks like Harold discovered problems
with
w32api headers.  I think Ernie should have a look at Harold patches and fix
the
problems in w32api headers.  Putting a -DXFREE flag in w32api is still a bad
idea.
It needs to be fixed in w32api or hw/xwin, whatever is has problems.
