No idea. I just know it fixed the problem. The problem report was that you could not build all-static-lib under MinGW. I confirmed that using my MinGW here and developed the following patch: *************** *** 245,253 **** all-lib: all-static-lib all-shared-lib ! all-static-lib: lib$(NAME).a ! all-shared-lib: $(shlib) ifneq ($(PORTNAME), cygwin) ifneq ($(PORTNAME), win32) --- 245,253 ---- all-lib: all-static-lib all-shared-lib ! all-static-lib: $(PTHREAD_H_WIN32) $(top_srcdir)/src/port/pg_config_paths.h lib$(NAME).a ! all-shared-lib: $(PTHREAD_H_WIN32) $(top_srcdir)/src/port/pg_config_paths.h $(shlib) ifneq ($(PORTNAME), cygwin) ifneq ($(PORTNAME), win32) The problem was that building libpq.a was not generating the include file dependencies. The cause I think is that we have a separate Win32 build rule for a static lib in Makefile.shlib: # win32 case $(shlib) lib$(NAME).a: $(OBJS) ifndef DLL_DEFFILE $(DLLTOOL) --export-all $(DLLTOOL_DEFFLAGS) --output-def $(NAME).def $(OBJS) $(DLLWRAP) $(LDFLAGS_SL) -o $(shlib) --dllname $(shlib) $(DLLWRAP_FLAGS) --def $(NAME).def $(OBJS) $(SHLIB_LINK) $(DLLTOOL) --dllname $(shlib) $(DLLTOOL_LIBFLAGS) --def $(NAME).def --output-lib lib$(NAME).a else $(DLLWRAP) $(LDFLAGS_SL) -o $(shlib) --dllname $(shlib) $(DLLWRAP_FLAGS) --def $(DLL_DEFFILE) $(OBJS) $(SHLIB_LINK) $(DLLTOOL) --dllname $(shlib) $(DLLTOOL_LIBFLAGS) --def $(DLL_DEFFILE) --output-lib lib$(NAME).a endif and that rule discusses only the OBJ files and doesn't know about the *.h files that are needed.
