Win32 port

Now that 7.3 is almost complete, I am going to start work on that. I
will post patches that deal with specific portability issues, like
fork/exec and path separator handling, and once reviewed, apply them to
the main CVS tree for 7.4.

Whoo Hooo!

Couldn't agree with Justin more. Even though I won't use it in
production, We have developers that use postgres on their windows
laptops for development and cygwin just doesn't cut it.
