Well, I'm still wondering why it is an input for MSVC.  If we have a
configure substitute for MSVC, why isn't it working off pg_config.h.in?

The original idea of pg_config.h.win32 was to sup****t the pre-8.0
method for building native libpq.dll.  I'd like to see us obsolete that
method altogether and get rid of pg_config.h.win32.

FYI, I'm about to commit changes moving XLOG_BLCKSZ and XLOG_SEG_SIZE
into the domain of configurable stuff, too.
