Surely this patch broke the error case in haveNativeWindowsIPv6routines()?
That is, in the admittedly unlikely case that LoadLibraryA("ws2_32")
succeeds but GetProcAddress(hLibrary, "getaddrinfo") doesn't, what you
now have will do FreeLibrary(hLibrary) and then proceed to use the
now-dangling hLibrary pointer anyway.

It looks to me like you should just remove this whole stanza now:

    if (hLibrary == NULL || GetProcAddress(hLibrary, "getaddrinfo") == NULL)
    {
        /*
         * Well, ws2_32 doesn't exist, or more likely doesn't have
         * getaddrinfo.
         */
        if (hLibrary != NULL)
            FreeLibrary(hLibrary);
    }
