In trying to port postgres to 64-bit Windows, I've encountered a
number of issues which may (or may not) affect other compilers. If
you followed the other thread, this is mostly a summary with a bit

I have developed the first part on my patch to get postgres running
natively on 64-bit Windows. It makes no changes to the postgres code
besides adding some win64 specific header files to the port directory.
The rest of it is modifications to the Perl scripts in src/tools/msvc
