The portability argument carries little weight with me. Recent versions
of Windows have symlinks. If anyone wants to run a PG installation on
a symlink-less platform, okay; they just won't have the option to move
the xlog directory. That's probably not the only functionality they
lose by using such an inadequate filesystem...
