Version is good, so there should be another reason.  What OS?
Compiled yourself?  Dit you build and install the packages if
you compiled yourself?  Library(socket) is part of the `clib'
package.

Second, it says source_sink `system' does not exist.  If I
load a non-existend library it says:

1 ?- use_module(library(foo)).
ERROR: source_sink `library(foo)' does not exist

So there is something odd.  In all cases, there should be a file
socket.pl in the library directory.  On windows there should be
socket.dll in the bin directory.  On Unix socket.so as
lib/<architecture>/socket.so (or whatever extension is used for
shared objects on the target platform).
