 - Also copy `win32helpers/` from `win32port/` inside `thirdparty/libwebsockets`
 - A fix has been added to allow building for 32-bits UWP, replacing `GetFileSize[Ex]` and `CreateFileW` with supported functions.
   There is a diff for this change in `thirdparty/libwebsockets/uwp_fixes.diff`
+- A fix to disable V6ONLY flag from IPv6 sockets (on by default on some systems) has been also applied.
+  The diff for this change can be found in `thirdparty/libwebsockets/ipv6_fixes.diff`
 
 Important: `lws_config.h` and `lws_config_private.h` contains custom
 Godot build configurations, check them out when updating.
