Can v8.1.4 be build using VC++ 2005? If so, what is the build procedure and

there is a patch in the queue which has a decent chance of making it
into 8.2. from the stock 8.1 sources it is impossible.

I tried to build postgresql from src using vc++ 2005 but was

not able to go

far before hitting errors related to inline function in the

"wchar.c" file.

The source file I downloaded is "postgresql-8.1.4.tar.gz".

I tried to build

it by runing "nmake -f win32.mak" in the "src" directory.

It's been applied, so it'll be in 8.2.

Currently it's broken though, because of some changes during commit.
I'll post a patch to fix this soon.
