Here is a v2 with the following changes:
- Use an environment variable to define where pg_regress is located.
- Use SSPI to access a node in the tests, to secure the test environment.
- Rebase on latest HEAD
- SSL tests are run only if build is configured with openssl

A couple of things to note:
- pg_rewind tests are still disabled, waiting for the outcome of
5519F169.8030406@gmx.net. They will need some tweaks.
- SSL tests can work if an equivalent of cp is available, like
something installed with msysgit... IMO the scripts in src/test/ssl
should be patched to be made more portable (see
http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAB7nPqQivFxnSjPwkyapa8=HTGm0hfDNvdGcM3=hkK6fPT0+Pg@mail.gmail.com)
- I tested the scripts with MinGW and this patch and got them working.
As prove can fail because of a bad perl interpreter, pointing to
/usr/bin/perl, it is necessary to enforce "PROVE = c:\Perl64\bin\perl
c:\Perl64\bin\prove" or similar. That's not beautiful, but it works,
and the t/ scripts need no further modifications. At least I checked
that.
