Here we go, that wasn't too hard :-)

Apart from adding the error handling, it does one more thing: it changes
the errormode when loading the DLLs. Previously if a DLL was broken, or
referenced other DLLs that couldn't be found, a popup dialog box would
appear on the screen. Which had to be clicked before the backend could
continue. This patch also disables the popup error message for DLL
loads.

I think this is something we should consider doing for the entire
backend - disable those popups, and say we deal with it ourselves. What
do you other win32 hackers thinnk about this?

In the meantime, this patch fixes the error msgs. Please apply for 8.1
and please consider a backpatch to 8.0.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

The JDBC, ODBC, C++, Python, and Tcl interfaces have been moved to the
PostgreSQL Projects Web Site at http://gborg.postgresql.org for separate
maintenance.  A Perl DBI/DBD driver is available from CPAN.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/.  For more information look at our web
site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
