confirm the issue, is it needed for structs encoding/decoding? Not interested in services/RPC

Confirm the issue, but you still can build protoc-c compliler with "make protoc-c.exe"

Iam trying to compile this on a redhat linux with gcc, and facing the same issue.
Do we have a workaround?

I have managed to build it for mingw with a patches attached and configure switches:

--enable-shared --disable-static --disable-protoc --disable-services --with-endianness=little

This makes win32 API a bit different from linux one (it doesn't contain protobuf-c-dispatch.h and protobuf-c-rpc.h parts), but I don't think it's a real problem.

Attachment: protobuf-c-disable-services.patch autogen.sh

from protobuf-c.

RPC support has been split out into a separate build target, and disabled by default, so i believe this is mostly fixed, at least so far as being able to build protoc-c and libprotobuf-c without building the RPC code.
