I have just committed a somewhat trimmed-down version of Andreas Pflug's
syslogger patch. It seems to work okay on Unix (with or without
EXEC_BACKEND) but I'm not in a position to test it on Windows. Would
someone give it a try and report back? Please check in particular that
the logger shuts down cleanly after the postmaster is gone.
Also, Andreas' patch to enable symlinks (ie tablespaces) on Windows
looks very interesting, but with the hour so late we need confirmation
from someone else that it works. Anyone?
regards, tom lane
