I believe that's correct.  It seems kinda inconsistent though.

The latter is clearly wrong, since pg_ident.conf is not binary.

Is there any interest in defining
        #define PG_TEXT_R "r"
        #define PG_TEXT_W "w"
so that AllocateFile is always called with one of this set of macros?
Or is that just silly?
