Each Windows patch should cover all Windows build systems; patches that fix a
problem in the src/tools/msvc build while leaving it broken in the GNU make
build are a bad trend.  In this case, I expect you'll need few additional
changes to cover both.

The src/tools/msvc build system officially requires ActivePerl, and I seem to
recall ActivePerl installs IPC::Run by default.  A check is optional.

I sense nothing ugly about a top_builddir reference, but see below.

Test suites that run as part of "make check-world", including all src/bin TAP
suites, _must not_ enable trust authentication on Windows.  To do so would
reintroduce CVE-2014-0067.  (The standard alternative is to call "pg_regress
--config-auth", which switches a data directory to SSPI authentication.)
Suites not in check-world, though not obligated to follow that rule, will have
a brighter future if they do so anyway.

Make all build systems set TESTREGRESS, and use it unconditionally.


That's not a complete review, just some highlights.

Thanks,
