I uploaded a test version, here
http://matzeri.altervista.org/32bit/postgresql/

that should solve the issue and have the dll versioning,
plus I removed the last trace of dlltool/dllwrap usage.

Could you please test before I replace all the others 9.2.x version ?


To download
wget -r -np -nH --cut-dirs=1 \
