OK, but I need more information on how users will see a difference based
on this commit:

    commit bed90759fc
    Author: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
    Date:   Fri Oct 9 16:20:12 2020 -0400
    
        Fix our Windows stat() emulation to handle file sizes > 4GB.
    
        Hack things so that our idea of "struct stat" is equivalent to Windows'
        struct __stat64, allowing it to have a wide enough st_size field.
    
        Instead of relying on native stat(), use GetFileInformationByHandle().
        This avoids a number of issues with Microsoft's multiple and rather
        slipshod emulations of stat().  We still need to jump through hoops
        to deal with ERROR_DELETE_PENDING, though :-(
    
        Pull the relevant support code out of dirmod.c and put it into
        its own file, win32stat.c.
    
        Still TODO: do we need to do something different with lstat(),
        rather than treating it identically to stat()?
