Not so. It came from a patch of my own :-)

The underlying problem is still there, though. initdb is pulling all
these symbols in from libpq.dll, which is clearly the wrong place to get
them... Or are they supposed to be available? If so, they should be
added to the official API, no?

(The problem occured when I tried to fix the problem "fix MinGW libpq to
export only required symbols". I have a patch that fixes this problem,
but causes these others instead)

Best way to fix this?
