C++ restricts use of offsetof() to (roughly speaking) the C-like
subset of struct/class types. Do the headers in VS2017 have different
definitions of struct sockaddr for C and C++ builds, with C++-specific
features where available? That could explain why only this use of
offsetof() on only this compiler is affected.
