Get rid of the fundamentally indefensible assumption that "long long int"
exists and is exactly 64 bits wide on every platform Postgres runs on.
Instead let the configure script select the type to use for "pg_int64".
This is a bit of a pain in the rear since we do not want to pollute client
namespace with all the random symbols that pg_config.h defines; instead
we have to create a separate generated header file, "pg_config_ext.h".
But now that the infrastructure is there, we might have the ability to
add some other stuff that's long been wanting in this area.
I take out patch for this as a promise. This is client-build support of
MS-VC6+.
Fix for different getaddrinfo structure ordering on Win32 for IPv6.

from the core repository ... I haven't *moved* the libpq++ files out of the
tree, mainly as we want to keep them in place for past branches ...
Peter, I think I've covered all the files I need, and re-ran autoconf to make
sure the configure file is in place properly ...
Here is a patch to bring both libpq and psql to a state where it compiles on
win32 (native) again. A lot of things have changed, and I have not been able
to keep up with them all, so it has been broken for quite a while.
After this patch, at least it compiles. It also talks "basic talk" to the
server, but I have not yet tested all things. Sending queries, and using
e.g. \d or \dt works fine. The rest will have to be tested further.
It also bumps the version on libpq.dll to 7.0.
Everything should be enclosed in #ifdef WIN32, unless I have missed
something. Except for one or maybe two places where I have moved a #include
that should not be used on win32 from the "global area" into a "#ifndef
WIN32 area".

regression test on a FreeBSD box with both non-MULTIBYTE and
MULTIBYTE-enabled, and confirmed that the results are same.
However I do not tested on PCs(I don't have access to win). Please let
me know if the patches break anything on PCs.
Also please note that the patch for varchar.c is a fix for a nasty bug
of char(n) types that I introduced and I believe at least this should
be applied.

Ok. Here is a patch to make psql work on Win32 (as a console mode
application, of course).
It requires getopt.c to be in src/utils - works fine with the FreeBSD
version of it.
Also, the file win32.mak should go into src/bin/psql.
Through some minor changes, I have been able to compile the libpq
client libraries on the Win32 platform. Since the libpq communications
part has been rewritten, this has become much easier. Enclosed is
a patch that will allow at least Microsoft Visual C++ to compile
libpq into both a static and a dynamic library. I will take a look
at porting the psql frontend as well, but I figured it was a good
idea to send in these patches first - so no major changes are done
to the files before it gets applied (if it does).
