I just downloaded 8.0beta5 to see if I could build libpq.dll with MS Visual Studio .NET 2003 on Windows XP. The make file throws the error:

Building the Win32 static library...

        1 file(s) copied.
        echo #define SYSCONFDIR "" >pg_config_paths.h

I looked at the offending line in win32.h and don't immediately see any errors with the ). Tried adding a ) before pid, but that causes more errors. Perhaps someone smarter can see where the problem is.
