Обсуждение: Okay, DLLIMPORT is making me crazy

I did this:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-committers/2008-11/msg00156.php
to try to fix this:
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=narwhal&dt=2008-11-12%2021:00:01
only to get this:
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=narwhal&dt=2008-11-13%2015:00:01

Anybody know how to get that stuff to act sanely?  Or should we just
toss the mingw build overboard?

Your second go at fixing this seems to have almost worked. Is there a 
reason why, alone of the utility programs, pg_resetxlog.c uses 
postgres.h rather than postgres_fe.h?

It doesn't compile otherwise.

We could possibly refactor the backend includes enough that it could get
the info it needs from frontend-safe headers.  I think Zdenek was
working on that awhile back, in fact.  For the moment what I'm trying
is to #define FRONTEND anyway ...

... meanwhile, the MSVC port has got its own issues:

Generating win32ver.rc for src\backend
Building src\pl\plperl\SPI.c...
Could not determine contrib module type for intaggat build.pl line 37

I am not sure what if anything that script needs to do for a contrib
module with no .c files.

It just needs to be excluded from the build step (it should still be
included in install, AFAICS). Will fix right away.
