Windows may not have an equivalent for "cat", no? Note that psql's
001_basic.pl has no restriction in place for Windows. Perhaps you
could use the same trick as basebackup_to_shell, where GZIP is used to
write some arbitrary data.. Anyway, this has some quoting issues
especially if the file's path has whitespaces? This is located in
File::Temp::tempdir, still it does not sound like a good thing to rely
on this assumption on portability grounds.
