This appears to be due to this on mingw:

/mingw/include/winsock.h:typedef struct fd_set FD_SET;
/mingw/include/winsock2.h:typedef struct fd_set FD_SET;

We have a list of excluded symbols in the typdef finding code, which
currently consists of this list:

'date','interval','timestamp','ANY'

Looks like we should add 'FD_SET' to this list.

I'm actually wondering if the list of excluded symbols should go in
pgindent rather than the typedef finding code. It would be a very simple
change to the pgindent script.
