If it's not going into the distribution as contrib or core, I'll package
that as additional admin pack. I'm quite sure I can convince the win32
installer packager guys to include that as default-on option as soon as
I'm able to prove them how it's working.

The win32 log issue isn't a serverlog rotation issue, as I stated also
the current stderr output is affected! I'd clearly see that as a fix,
whilst it might be more than 10 lines of code. I'll try to fix that
tomorrow. The very log_destination=file and rotation code will be more
or less the same as for ***x.

This is desirable in any case. But until 7.6 will be around, 1-1.5 years
and ???,000 installations will happen. Since the functionality is
available now or will be available VSN (certainly before 7.5 release),
there's no good reason suppress it.
