I hadn't done it.

Shouldn't it be in postgresql/src instead ?

I moved mingw32.make to postgresql/src, and did a make -f mingw32.mak. The
built process succeeded (I got errors at link time, but a global make clean
before compiling got rid of them).

Building pypgsql using that new libpq.a solved the WSAStartup problem.

I don't know if it's related to the PostgreSQL libpq, or to pyPgSQL
libpq.pyd.
