Hi folks

    I've been trying to build for Windows NT.  I have the latest Cygwin
installed, as well as MS Visual Studio 6.0.

    When I try to build, the process halts in src\interfaces\libpq.  If
I try to manually calle the make command there, I get

$ make
make: *** No rule to make target `libpq.a', needed by `all-lib'.  Stop.




    Since I noticed the file win32.mak, I tried changing its name to
Makefile and running NMAKE.   That was no good either (see below).  Has
anyone got an idea how to fix this?
