I'm trying to cross-compile postgresql-8.1.4 for windows under Debian
Linux. This is how I've tried to run configure:

CC=i586-mingw32msvc-gcc RANLIB=i586-mingw32msvc-ranlib ./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/stow/pg-msw-8.0.4/msw-dev/ --host i586-pc-mingw32 \
--without-zlib --disable-shared

However, not very successfully:

- I have to run i586-mingw32msvc-ranlib manually for
src/port/libpgport.a and src/port/libpgport_srv.a
- have to edit few makefiles to change windres to 586-mingw32msvc-windres

And still, no go:

i586-mingw32msvc-gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing initdb.o win32ver.o -L../../../src/port -lpgport -L../../../src/interfaces/libpq -lpq -L../../../src/port -Wl,--allow-multiple-definition -lpgport -lwsock32 -lm -lws2_32 -lshfolder -o initdb.exe

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [initdb] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/tavasti/work/postgres/postgresql-8.1.4/src/bin/initdb'

In fact all I would essentially need is static libpq.a, but even that doesn't
look very good:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 tavasti tavasti 8 Jun 28 10:55 libpq.a
