No it isn't set up for bootstrapping from the darcs repo. It shouldn't be too
hard to add, though: all that's needed is to compile the .scm files to C.

Regarding the tcp problems: change the #include's for winsock2.h
to ws2tcpip.h. That should fix the build problems.

The tarballs will be updated soon.
