I'm currently upgrading to

I'm currently upgrading to this new version of the network library, and I get a compile error when compiling with SSL disabled. I notice this problem was mentioned by someone else on the Forum about 14 weeks ago, although there was no response by anyone to the problem. I also found a bug in the previous version of PION that I was using (I think Windows-specific) that I mentioned on the forum at the time, but which got no response by anyone. Thanks for making the library available.
