It looks sane to me in a quick once-over (bearing in mind I can't test
it). What's bothering you about the ereport calls?

Presumably the changes in win32/socket.c could still be applied; but
on the other hand it's not clear there's so much need for them pre-9.1.
IIRC most of the point of this patch was to eliminate the tug-of-war
over the socket's event attachment between socket.c and win32_latch.c,
so maybe there's not a bug pre-9.1.
