Sure, I agree it is a longstanding bug in PostgreSQL. Developers who use
MSVC (not mingw) always encounter the bug; machines in the buildfarm can
build Windows binaries just because they have non-standard equipments.

A patch attached. The name of "PGMODULEEXPORT" might be arguable.

I agree with this in principle, but won't this break every single
add-on module out there that supports Win32?

The patch didn't touch the contrib modules, so why would it break
third-party sources?

Oh, d'oh. I was clearly too tired when reading that thing. I was
thinking we required changes in the contrib modules/third party
modules, but they don't actually use DLLEXPORT, do they?

In that case, that argument clearly falls, and I'm in favour of the
patch :-) Just make sure you test it on both current and semi-old
versions of mingw, they tend to not always act the same way. Or just
get it in and the buildfarm can figure that part out for us.
