I must have seen logtape.c, windows, and long together on this thread, and incorrectly surmised that it was exactly the same issue as before. I now see that the only sense in which Windows is relevant is that Windows happens to not have the same inconsistency. Windows is consistently wrong. So, yeah, I guess it's a different issue. Practically speaking it should be treated as a separate issue, in any case. Since, as you pointed out, there is no reason to not just fix this while backpatching. -- Peter Geoghegan
