# add_file "src/include/pg_config.h"
# add_file "src/include/pg_config_paths.h"

This part certainly isn't right :-) Those files are supposed to be
auto-generated, not put in the source.


As for:
-                if (getsockopt(conn->sock, SOL_SOCKET,
SO_ERROR,
-                               (char *)
&optval, &optlen) == -1)
+                int err = getsockopt(conn->sock,
SOL_SOCKET, SO_ERROR,
+
(char *) &optval, &optlen);
+#if defined(_WIN32_WCE)
+                /* This was "googled" from the curl
library source */
+                /* Always returns this error, bug in CE?
*/
+                if ( err == -1 && SOCK_ERRNO ==
WSAENOPROTOOPT )
+                    err=0;
+#endif
+                if ( err == -1 )


Does it actually *have* the option and fail to set it, or is the option
just not there? If it doesn't exist, you should just #ifdef out the
tryign to set the option, IMHO.


Apart from that it looks OK to me. There definitly needs to be some
documentation on how to build it, though...
