I believe that the above is a bug in sqlca.h. My WAG (without actually
trying this) is that the above should be replaced by the following:
#ifdef __CYGWIN__
extern __declspec(dllimport) struct sqlca sqlca;
#else
extern struct sqlca sqlca;
or by
#ifdef __CYGWIN__
extern DLLIMPORT struct sqlca sqlca;
#else
extern struct sqlca sqlca;
if c.h can be safely included.

Don't worry sqlca *is* exported from ecpg.dll:
$ objdump -p /usr/bin/ecpg.dll | fgrep sqlca
[ 28] init_sqlca
[ 29] sqlca

Actually, sqlca *is* in the import library but it is called
"__imp__sqlca" as it should be.
Does changing your sqlca.h as above fix your problem. If so, then I
will submit a patch to the pgsql-ports mailing list.
Are there other ESQL related symbols that need the __declspec(dllimport)
attribute too?
