Description
The sockets/networking support in parrot is conditional based on a define, PARROT_NET_DEVEL. This field is internal to the IO subsystem (so I don't think deprecation rules apply), it lives in src/io/io_private.h. It was added in r4381, and modified to a true value in r7974. It doesn't appear to have been touched since.
Both of the svn revisions I mentioned above happened in 2005. Do we really need this to be conditional?
I propose we either rename it to PARROT_NETWORKING_SUPPORT (bacek++ for suggesting this) and generate it from Configure.pl, or just get rid of it.
