    will have used build.pl <http://build.pl> to do it (right?) and

    The downside of this approach is that build.pl <http://build.pl>
    isn't a complete Makefile parser, and is easily confused by anything
    but the most trivial Makefile syntax. I had problems when I was
    putting the crashdump module together because build.pl
    <http://build.pl> didn't understand ifndef .

Ok, I hadn't realized that the VS build system extrapolates information
from unix Makefiles..

I briefly tried adding a new contrib module for my extension and
re-running the VS build (src\tools\msvc\build.bat), and still get the
same error.
(about redefinition of errcode).  Somehow, it seems to me that there's
an inherent incompatibility..

OK, so you're building it within the main Pg build system. Pg was successfully compiled, including files that use elog.h . Yet your extension doesn't compile, complaining about a macro/typedef conflict.

This makes me wonder: what's different?

Can you post the full sources of your extension, including the Makefile?
