Yes, bcc55. In case it matters, using Windows 2000.
You say echo is done by Borland make - are you sure? I thought maybe it was
just passed to the command processor cmd.exe. It doesn't seem to do
anything special with quotes - justs outputs them - but I will do some more
checking with "'\ in a Makefile (on Tuesday, when I'm back where the
Windows PC lives.)
It would be interesting to hear from the original poster who
changed "" to \"\" to find out what his environment is.
By the way, I also had to put "#define inline" into pg_config.h.win32
after #ifdef __BORLANDC__, or the compilation failed in
backend/utils/mb/wchar.c (keep in mind I'm only building libpq here).
