Where did this end up, is compilation on Windows with OpenSSL and GSSAPI still
an issue?  AFAICT the fixes from this thread are yet to be applied and it would
be nice to have that done before v18 if still needed.

I kid you not, 20 seconds ago I hit send on a message on a pgAdmin thread where I was complaining this bug was outstanding to someone asking about GSSAPI support on Windows. That's quite the coincidence.

 Anyway, no fix was committed as far as I know. I would suggest it should be back-patched as well.



I'm quite partial to the approach suggested upthread by Andres (a separate pg_gssapi.h file). If there's agreement on that I'm prepared to go and make it happen, unless Daniel beats me to it. Backpatching also seems reasonable


That solution seems quite elegant to me.

Thanks.
