Description Roumen Petrov 2007-07-06 20:59:33 UTC 
The proposed patch improve mingw build.

Without changes in makefiles mingw build don't create shared libraries(dlls).
Changes in ./configure.in remove unused winsoc too.
May be AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL is not necessary but I add it.
Modification in extensions.c is to suppress warning.

This part of the patch looks controversial to me, it may affect the build of 
others on Windows. Again since I have no Windows expertise, I will ask to 
send your patch and explain it on the mailing list where others with such
expertise and ability to build on Windows can discuss it, I can't process 
this on my own.
