C

It is expected that users will compile the wanted language bindings
by themselves.

I will try to add tcl and php languages for the CYGWIN port, when they 
seem to work fine.
For tcl I have a patch, which seems to work,
for php there is some old code to be compiled,
and for perl (which is official) there is some very new and very good 
looking extension proposed. Wonder if that will be accepted. I seem to 
like it but maybe Tom Lane has a good motivation not to accept it.
