I took the minimalist approach -- meaning that I only made the minimum
number of changes necessary to get PostgreSQL to compile cleanly under
Cygwin. You are correct, the other global context variables should
also be marked DLLIMPORT. There are probably other global variables
that should be marked too.
The completeness approach would DLLIMPORT "everything" (similar to
the way that Python uses DL_EXPORT), but that would be a lot of source
code changes...

I marked TransactionCommandContext as DLLIMPORT to get plpgsql.dll to
link without unresolved symbol errors.
