Yes, those directions are outdated and need to be updated. So feel free
to submit a patch! We have very few people on the list running Windows,
thus it doesn't get as much attention as the *nix side of things.

The good news is that none of the failing tests look to be of extreme 
importance.

> C:/strawberry/perl/lib/CORE/win32.h:238:1: warning: "isnan" redefined

This should probably be cleaned up at some point. It's unclear if we can do it
at the DBD::Pg level however.

I just made a commit (12766) which should fix both instances of this problem,
by simply skipping the test unless the server encoding is UTF8.

Not sure what is going on here: some interaction of Windows + DBI is
causing what I assume is a mostly harmless warning: assumed because
all of the other test pass. :)

Some sort of Windows/File::Temp bug. I don't see any bugs there related to it -
can you tell us what version you are using?

> C:\DBD-Pg-2.13.1>set TEST_VERBOSE=1

> C:\DBD-Pg-2.13.1>dmake test

This did not seem to work, FWIW.

Thanks for the detailed report. Hopefully somebody on the list will recognize
that "handle not initialized" error.
