Sorry for the delay. The attached patch replaces PQexec() used by dblink
and libpqwalreceiver with pgwin32_PQexec() which is the win32 version of
PQexec().

pgwin32_PQexec() is provided as the library 'libpqbe.dll', which is created
only on win32. dblink.dll and libpqwalreceiver.dll refer to libpqbe.dll.
Also libpqbe.dll refers to libpq.dll.

I'm not sure if my patch is in the right way. If you notice anything,
please feel free to comment!
