Because MinGW/Msys doesn't come with flex/bison by default, I have added
those derived files to the WIN32_DEV branch in CVS. It makes it easier
for people to install _just_ MinGW and compile PostgreSQL on Win32. The
branch will live for only 1-2 months until we start 7.5 development.
Those files will not be moved into the main branch.

Should those files be in WIN32_DEV CVS, or should they be removed, and
require people to install bison/flex on MinGW. Even though they will
be updated infrequently, there is concern about CVS file bloat.
