Option 1 is dangerous. I'd rather let the environments keep their constants.
Option 2 is the least dangerous but it adds lines of code.
Option 3: The errno variable is not set in Windows so relying on it is not possible.
If no one likes my patch then you need to come up with your own constants (ex.
PG_EINPROGRESS) and define those based on the compiler environment.
