Well, in the port subdirectory, one of the things that is generated by
the makefile is pg_config_paths.h. Without this, libpq will not compile.
As I stated above, cobbling this together manually then gets me to the
place where the aforementioned external references are not resolved. All
are in source files in the port directory.

The errors I'm seeing are all caused by includes not being found, etc. I
don't know what to do when they are ones like strings.h, which I do not
have either in the snapshot source tree, or in the Borland bcc 5.5 tree.

I also don't know how you want the above files building... into a
library, static or dynamic/straight object code, etc. There is also no
listing in the current bcc32.mak files to include them into the libpq
dll generation.
