Is 2.5.2 not win2k compatible?

Trying to run nexuiz 2.5.2 full on Windows 2000 Pro SP4 gives a

nexuiz.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in the dynamic link library WS2_32.dll

Did the workaround listed in the other thread fix it?

Just so you know: win 2k is no longer supported.

Yes it is, compatibility goes all the way back to win9x, it always has, and I see no reason to change that.

This is news to me. What options do i build with to disable ipv6? (since its not supported on these old platforms)

I think some more minimal Linux distros don't build their kernel with IPv6 support either, hence if IPv6 was a requirement for Nexuiz, it wouldn't work on those systems either although many users of these uberlightweight distros are using crummy old hardware that wouldn't even manage Nexuiz on absolute minimum settings.
