I couldn't get it with --with-ffcall to find the ffcall libs on my build 
machine, --with-dynamic-ffi works still fine. On my development laptop 
--with-ffcall worked okay.
The end product is the same.

cygfcgi-0.dll should have been pulled in by libfcgi0 in the require 
line. Accidently I added ffcall and not libfcgi0 there.
This is wrong. ffcall is just a build time requirement, not run-time. 
Linked statically.

I've uploaded a fixed clisp setup.hint now.

Temp. workaround:
To work with clisp -K full you need to install fastcgi
and install a temp. libpq5-8.2.5 I just uploaded now.
Download and Reinstall clisp should work, until I up the release number 
to -2.
