First, my original port of snort (1.7) never worked with -A unsock.
When did this functionality start working on snort-win32?

It seems odd you are having problems compiling the source when many
others do. Excuse my ignorance if anything has changed in the way you
build the win32 port as I have not personally used the new 1.8.3
win32 port but the way I had things originally was you just had to
open the project file with Visual Studio and Hit build. You should
not have to do anything else.

It is a standard Console application.

Again, you don't need this file as far as I recall.

#define snprintf _snprintf

It is the same as on *nix platforms as I recall.

No, #include <winsock.h>

Winsock contains this type definition all ready.

You should include winsock.h.
