+#ifdef WIN23 ^^^^^
I assume you meant WIN32 here ;-)
+#define PQexec(conn, command) dblink_PQexec(conn, command)
+#define PQconnectdb(conninfo) dblink_PQconnectdb(conninfo)
I have not been really following this thread, but why can't we put the
"#ifdef WIN32" and special definition of these functions into libpq. I
don't understand why we need special treatment for dblink.
