No, I think this is fine. But I would like a blurb in the README stating that Windows does depend on this external library. I think something like (in the installation section): Windows
^^^^^^^
Windows support depends on a third-party library--`win-inet-pton`--to provide `inet_pton` and `inet_ntop` wrappers for the socket library. It is automatically included for installations on the Windows platform. |

Ok, I added that into the README verbatim (it looked good to me!) |

I found this in the 'Issues' and decided to provide a fix. I know it's not preferable to have the external dependency on 'win_inet_pton', but that was the only way I could get it working. If this isn't ideal, I can just a blurb to the README for Windows users to note that an install and conditional include of 'win_inet_pton" is required.
