Hi Nazir,

Thank you, that worked! I had actually tried that with openssl, icu, and zlib all enabled but when either icu or zlib failed it didn't get
as far as openssl so I didn't know that it would work until I tried with just openssl by itself. I have the setup working now but ninja
fails when I do the setup with openssl, zlib, and icu. If I setup just openssl and zlib, the build works.

With openssl, zlib, and icu enabled in the setup, the ninja build fails trying to link src/backend/postgres.exe. There are 40 unresolved
external symbol errors (see below.) I checked a few of the symbols and they appear in the Postgres source without the "_72" text on
the end. Is it getting "72" from the version of icu4c I'm using, 72.1? Anyone know how to prevent these errors?

Thanks, Mark
