Yes, the 'broken' file is there because it is, indeed, broken, i.e. not compiling. > Then I intend to write a simple webserver (1st step a socket demo).

You're right that there's the need for a driver. Reviving ankh is quite a bit of work, and would include fixing/updating DDE first. Maybe looking into dpdk is a better approach here. Then a TCP/IP stack is required, for a simple demo lwip should work I guess (it's in the repo). Overall quite a bit of work.
