That would fail if the mingw guys decide to provide the #define without adding the struct at the same time, but that seems moderately unlikely. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
