Why reinventing the wheel when there is already --with-extra-version that you can use for the same purpose? And I think that I can see a bug here on HEAD, src/tools/msvc/Solution.pm correctly uses --with-extra-version in PG_VERSION_STR but ./configure is forgetting it. If you want to push for this proposal anyway, I think that you should update the msvc scripts as well. -- Michael
