Hi strk,

As far as I can tell, an unsigned char would be fine. FWIW here is the
complete error output from a compile of PostGIS 1.0-RC2 under Win32:

The -fPIC warnings are a little noisy but I don't think they will affect the
resulting library. There are a couple of min/maxs that need to be replaced
with the PostGIS equivalent along with a change for the 'byte' type.
Interestingly enough, shp2pgsql/pgsql2shp show an issue trying to access the
getopt() function too. I'm not sure about the vsprintf() error, although it
looks as if it may be a bug in MingW.


Kind regards,

Mark.
