Ah, right, I'd not noticed that he proposed changing
CloseHandle(UsedShmemSegID) to PGSharedMemoryDetach().  The latter is
clearly the wrong thing.

I'm not sure whether we should just put the CloseHandle call in
postmaster.c, or invent a function in win32_shmem.c to provide a
layer of abstraction.
