I too faced same kind of a problem building libpq on Windows and as a
solution to it removed "inline" from the file "\backend\utils\mb\wchar.c"

Did the following ... changed "static inline int" to "static int" instead at
a couple of places in the wchar.c file

Run "nmake" after doing this specific change and hopefully it will solve the
problem.

Thanks,
