As is, this will probably break on a bunch of platforms. I suspect you
will need the equivalent of this snippet from pg_regress.c:
add_to_path("LD_LIBRARY_PATH", ':', libdir); add_to_path("DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH", ':', libdir);
add_to_path("LIBPATH", ':', libdir); #if defined(WIN32) add_to_path("PATH", ';', libdir); #elif
defined(__CYGWIN__) add_to_path("PATH", ':', libdir); #endif
For extra credit, you could create a subroutine in vcregress.pl to run
the check for MSVC builds.
