I'll post a patch that restores libpq building with BCC. But, to repeat
from a thread back in Jan 2007, I only test the resulting blibpq.dll
through pgtcl-ng and its test suite. It works for that, but may not work
for anything else. At one point I tried to also build psql with BCC; it
built but didn't work, and I see you removed bin/psql/bcc32.mak now. So I
think it's best to continue to call libpq/bcc32.mak "semi-maintained at best".
