I think you can provide a precise specification without losing
simplicity of explanation. Maybe something like
When step is positive, zero rows are returned if start stop.
Conversely, when step is negative, zero rows are returned if
start stop. It is an error for step to be zero.
Ok, here we go again.
Taking into account Claudios comments on the previous patch, as well as
some more fooling around here of my own, here's a fourth (and final?)
one.
If there are no further comments from Claudio or anyone else, I feel
this is now ready to be applied.

Code walkthrough looks good.
One final minor point to discuss:
Is being unable to set a handler for things like CTRL_C_EVENT,
CTRL_SHUTDOWN_EVENT etc really a non-fatal error? ISTM
