HEAD already does that, no? See f02259fe9.

This seems improbably broken/stupid. Also, I've not seen any buildfarm
failures that would match this; it's always pg_ctl complaining not the
postmaster.

Hmmm ... there seems the germ of a good idea here, but can't we do
it with less (and less ugly) code?
Alternatively, perhaps we could fix things so that the parent cmd.exe
shell isn't involved in logfile access? That'd require teaching the
postmaster to open/redirect its stdout/stderr, which is kind of
annoying, but it might beat hacking things as you have done here.
