While building PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on a stock Cygwin 1.1.4, I had problems
during the linking phase because of the attached file contributed by Mumit
Khan. Specifically, I had an undefined reference to '__imp_reent_data'
due to the following line:
_impure_ptr = __imp_reent_data;
Reading the comments, I can only assume that '__imp_reent_data' is a
vestige of b19. If so, what is the appropriate analog for the Net
release?
BTW, searching the archives I found exactly the same problem as
documented by:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2000-07/msg00629.html
Unfortunately, there was no response to this post. Hopefully, I will
be more fortunate. At least, I can try, try again...
Thanks,
Jason

I've used DllMain as the DLL "main" since that's the most common
usage. MSVC and Mingw32 both default to DllMain as the standard
callback from the linker entry point. Cygwin32 b19+ uses essentially
the same, albeit slightly differently implemented, scheme. Please
see DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL macro in <cygwin32/cygwin_dll.h> for more
info on how Cygwin32 uses the callback function.
The real entry point is typically always defined by the runtime
library, and usually never overridden by (casual) user. What you can
override however is the callback routine that the entry point calls,
and this file provides such a callback function, DllMain.
Mingw32: The default entry point for mingw32 is DllMainCRTStartup
which is defined in libmingw32.a This in turn calls DllMain which is
defined here. If not defined, there is a stub in libmingw32.a which
does nothing.
Cygwin32: The default entry point for cygwin32 b19 or newer is
__cygwin32_dll_entry which is defined in libcygwin.a. This in turn
calls the routine you supply to the DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL (see below)
and, for this example, I've chose DllMain to be consistent with all
the other platforms.
MSVC: MSVC runtime calls DllMain, just like Mingw32.
Summary: If you need to do anything special in DllMain, just add it
here. Otherwise, the default setup should be just fine for 99%+ of
the time. I strongly suggest that you *not* change the entry point,
but rather change DllMain as appropriate.
