Agreed. What could be the solution? I know it is caused by calling
pg_strcasecmp in exec.c.
I think I see it now. I added this to pg_dump/Makefile:
# Not sure why MinGW needs this but it prevents a link failure
# of duplicate definitions for pg_tolower(). 2004-10-06
ifeq ($(PORTNAME), win32)
EXTRA_OBJS += $(top_builddir)/src/port/exec.o
endif
Now, the big question is if you remove this from the Makefile, does
Cygwin compile OK, and if not, why does that fail? I am thinking we
need to run ranlib on Cygwin to fix this properly. My BSD ranlib manual
page has:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ranlib [-v|-V] archive
DESCRIPTION
ranlib generates an index to the contents of an archive,
and stores it in the archive. The index lists each symbol
defined by a member of an archive that is a relocatable
object file.
An archive with such an index speeds up linking to the li-
brary, and allows routines in the library to call each
other without regard to their placement in the archive.
The GNU ranlib program is another form of GNU ar; running
ranlib is completely equivalent to executing `ar -s'.
