OK, good to know. Thanks very much for testing that, and my apologies
for recommending something that didn't work out. Of course, it would
have been hard to progress without eliminating that possible factor.

Well, certainly I'd expect that Pg on Windows 2000 server gets about
zero regular testing. Why would you deploy a server OS that's already 10
years out of date, went EOL five years ago, and lost even the option of
paid extended support this year?

It'd be interesting to investigate this issue ... but win2k server isn't
exactly easy to come by. Anyone on the list got a win2k server (or
license) around they can do some experimenting on? All I have here is
NT4 (not kidding - legacy system) and Win2k8 plus the usual desktop
suspects.
