The patch would put the buildfarm in red as it is incomplete anyway,
with MSVC what is used instead of dynloader.h is
port/dynloader/win32.h. Instead of this patch I would be incline to
remove the #define stuff with dynloader.h that use WIN32_ONLY_COMPILER
(see for example dfmgr.c) and just copy the header in include/. This
way we use the same header for all platforms.
