we should have get rid of dlltool on cygwin.
At least it is not used on my build

The send in a patch. The patch you sent in previously did not totally
remove it IIRC.

attached patch versus latest git.

I've committed this with some fixes.  However, I omitted the hunks that
change the names of generated shared libraries (to add SO_MAJOR_VERSION).
I think that requires some policy discussion around whether we want to
do it or not, and in any case it's unrelated to the issues being discussed
in this thread.  If you still want that, please submit it as a separate
patch in a new thread, with some discussion as to why it's a good idea.

Noted.

On cygwin the shared libraries are using the SO_MAJOR_VERSION
by long time.

cd /usr/bin

$ ls cyggcc*dll
cyggcc_s-1.dll  cyggccpp-1.dll


$ ls cygfo*dll
cygfontconfig-1.dll  cygform-10.dll  cygform-8.dll  cygformw-10.dll
cygfontenc-1.dll     cygform7.dll    cygform-9.dll


In this way we allow coexistence of several release, similar to

/usr/lib/libpq.so.5
on unix.

Marco
