AFAICS, the winip code doesn't consider the netmask when searching the iface-table.

But, scanning 127.0.0.1 is handy. That doesn't work without -P0 option on Windows because of the SIO_RCVALL optionin rawrecv.c. After disabling the SIO_RCVALL it worked, but this funny thing occured:
BAH. WTF does Windows do _that_ for? Is it even worth working around? Commenting that line would break all other interfaces, and skipping the check unconditionally (IIRC) causes rawsock support to be detected incorrectly. With the SP2 changes, though, that may not matter. Maybe the check should be removed?
