Hi,
Please quote properly on postgres mailing lists... We're old school [tm].

I don't think we quite have an established protocol for this. I
personally, but I'm biased in this specific case, is that we should
adopt a position that PGDLLIMPORTs should basically backpatched whenever
a credible extension even halfway reasonably requires it. There's no
easy way to get this done by default, and we're so far unwilling to just
slap this onto every variable. So to not further disadvantage people
force dto live in the MS environment, that seems the sanest
solution. It's not like these are high risk.
