Um, is WIN32_CLIENT_ONLY really defined when you're building a backend
extension? That seems wrong.
The whole problem seems to be the using of the pg_config.h from mingw
when building with msvc. Why not just use the correct pg_config.h in the
first place? What happens then?
IIRC, there were other problems building extensions with MSVC - such as
struct alignment and stuff. Not sure if that has been taken care of? If
not, there really isn't much point in fixing the headers alone :-)
