Looks good at first glance. Fails on Windows, though:
"C:\postgresql\pgsql.sln" (default target) (1) ->
"C:\postgresql\auth_counter.vcxproj" (default target) (29) ->
(Link target) -> auth_counter.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol

ostgresql\auth_counter.vcxproj] .\Release\auth_counter\auth_counter.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 1

"C:\postgresql\pgsql.sln" (default target) (1) ->

Marking UnBlockSig with PGDLLIMPORT fixes that. But I wonder if it's a
good idea to leave unblocking signals the responsibility of the user
code in the first place? That seems like the kind of low-level stuff
that you want to hide from extension writers.
Oh, and this needs docs.
