Hm ... grep swears up and down that there is no remaining instance
of the string "XLogFileNameP" anywhere in the tree. So this doesn't
seem to be the fault of 9989d37d1 per se. What my eye now falls on
is this, a bit further up in the build log [1]:
...
PreLinkEvent:
Generate DEF file
perl src\tools\msvc\gendef.pl Release\postgres x64
:VCEnd
Not re-generating POSTGRES.DEF, file already exists.
Link:
...
So it seems that the problem might really be a faulty rule in our
MSVC build script about when postgres.def needs to be regenerated?
Or else it's some weird caching problem on drongo --- the lack of
complaints from other Windows critters might point the finger
that way.
