Well, maybe the right answer is to take a step back and figure out what
pg_config.h.win32's excuse for living is at all. I do not understand
our Windows configuration setup, and what I do understand is is that
it's a pile of horrid kluges that break anytime anyone looks at them
sideways.
I will be quite happy to never touch any Windows configuration stuff
again. If you want me to, you had better redesign and/or document it
so that people other than you and Magnus have some idea of what connects
to what.
