Ahhh... Thanks this patch gets me a lot further building my extension but ...

I still am getting a couple of undefined references

dlltool --export-all --output-def postgis.def postgis_debug.o postgis_ops.o postgis_fn.o postgis_inout.o postgis_proj.o
postgis_chip.o postgis_transform.o postgis_gist_72.o postgis_estimate.o
dllwrap -o postgis.dll --dllname postgis.dll --def postgis.def postgis_debug.o postgis_ops.o postgis_fn.o
postgis_inout.o
postgis_proj.o postgis_chip.o postgis_transform.o postgis_gist_72.o postgis_estimate.o

fu000019.o(.idata$3+0xc): undefined reference to `_libpostgres_a_iname'
nmth000018.o(.idata$4+0x0): undefined reference to `__nm__cpu_index_tuple_cost'

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.2 20020927 (prerelease).

$ ld --version
GNU ld version 2.13.90 20021118

a nm dump of libpostgres.a yields

dt.o:
00000000 b .bss
00000000 d .data
00000000 i .idata$4
00000000 i .idata$5
00000000 i .idata$7
00000000 t .text
00000000 I __libpostgres_a_iname


ds01498.o:

00000000 d .data

00000000 i .idata$5
00000000 i .idata$6
00000000 i .idata$7
00000000 t .text
         U __head_libpostgres_a
00000000 I __imp__cpu_index_tuple_cost

but no reference to  'fu000019.o'  or 'nmth000018.o'
which are where the complaints are apparently originating

Anyone got any ideas ??
