I can do the test of your patch/idea, please confirm if below steps are
sufficient:
a. Change manually postgres.def file and add DATA for MainLWLockArray.   (Will it be sufficient to change manually or
shouldI apply your patch)
 
b. Rebuild pg_buffercache module
c. Test pg_buffercache if it can access the variable.
d. If above works, then run 'check'.

If I understand correctly your patch is intended to resolve PGDLLIMPORT
problem, right?
