module problems on cygwin

so i'm trying to get xemacs to build, and configure decides it's ok to build modules, but when it tries to build them, it throws up at the module-link stage, with a zillion undefined references: make[1]: Entering directory `/src/xemacs/cygbuild/lilfix-mule/modules/postgresql' ../../lib-src/ellcc -g -Wall -Wno-switch -Winline -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer -arith -Wno-sign-compare -Wshadow --mode=compile --mod-output=postgresql.o -I../ ../src -I/src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/../../src -c /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c ELLMAKEDOC=../../lib-src/make-docfile ../../lib-src/ellcc --mode=init --mod-output=postgresql_i.c \ --mod-name=postgresql --mod-version=1.0.0 \ --mod-title="PostgreSQL Client Interface for XEmacs" /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c ../../lib-src/ellcc -g -Wall -Wno-switch -Winline -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer -arith -Wno-sign-compare -Wshadow --mode=compile --mod-output=postgresql_i.o -I. ./../src -I/src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/../../src -c postgresql_i.c ../../lib-src/ellcc --mode=link --mod-output=postgresql.ell postgresql.o postgresql_i.o -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lpq postgresql.o: In function `make_pgconn': /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:178: undefined reference to `_wrap_record_1' postgresql.o: In function `mark_pgconn': /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:194: undefined reference to `_Qnil' postgresql.o: In function `print_pgconn': /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:205: undefined reference to `_error_check_pgconn' /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:228: undefined reference to `_print_readably' /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:229: undefined reference to `_printing_unreadable_object' /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:231: undefined reference to `_write_c_string' postgresql.o: In function `allocate_pgconn': /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:241: undefined reference to `_alloc_automanaged_lcrecord' postgresql.o: In function `finalize_pgconn': /src/xemacs/lilfix/modules/postgresql/postgresql.c:254: undefined reference to `_invalid_operation' etc. etc. the problem, i assume, is that the ellcc front end is not passing the correct flags to say "build a shared LIBRARY, damn it!" and instead it tries to build an executable. here's ellcc.h: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- /* DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE!!!! */ /* Most of this is required due to a bug in the GCC compiler driver which prevents us from passing this on the command line.
