Bug reference: 8254
Logged by: Marco Atzeri
Email address: marco(dot)atzeri(at)gmail(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.4
Operating system: Windows / Cygwin build
Description:

The usage of dllwrap (deprecated on cygwin) produces buggy shared lib
causing segfault of psql after rebase.

Reported here:
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-03/msg00022.html
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-03/msg00032.html
http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-03/msg00134.html

The patch to switch from dllwrap and dlltool to only gcc, was already
attached here:

Also added DLL versioning, following cygwin scheme.
