+1 to document it.

How about PGDLLIMPORT_FE_BE which represents the macro to be used for
variables/functions common to both frontend and backend? Otherwise,
PGDLLIMPORT_COMM/PGDLLIMPORT_COMMON or PGDLLIMPORT_2 or
PGDLLIMPORT_PORT?
We have some of the #defines with "FeBe":
/*
* prototypes for functions in pqcomm.c
*/
extern WaitEventSet *FeBeWaitSet;
#define FeBeWaitSetSocketPos 0
#define FeBeWaitSetLatchPos 1
