After playing with this a bit, I see that postgres_fe.h is just a
wrapper around c.h, which we probably don't want to move out of
internal. So relocating the file won't help.
AFAICT the only reason pgconnection.h includes postgres_fe.h is that
it needs DLLIMPORT. So a possible solution is to move DLLIMPORT's
definition out of c.h and into pg_config.h --- or even better, put
the nontrivial cases into the appropriate pg_config_os.h file.
Comments?
