This is apparently an optimization bug in the compiler. If I turn
optimization off (CFLAGS=-O0) it goes away. Ick.
So at the moment I'm a bit blocked. I can't really file a bug because
the compiler can't currently be used to build postgres, I don't have
time to construct a self-contained test case, and I don't want to commit
changes to enable the compiler until the issue is solved.
FYI I've been testing with the attached patch. We'll need to construct a
configure test for HAVE_CRTDEFS_H.
