I don't know if this is a problem or not, but Tom had already
checked in a different patch that removed the DLLLIBS definition
from src/backend/Makefile. Hence, when the backend is built it will
try to link with itself. This is due to the DLLLIBS definition in
src/makefiles/Makefile.win no longer being overriden by the one in
src/backend/Makefile. May be this is a no-op. I don't know.

Nevertheless, I have generated, tested, and submitted my updated patch.
