During a live review of this patch last week, as part of the Advanced
Patch Workshop of pgconf.dev, it has been mentioned by Tom that we may
be able to simplify the check on pmstart if the detection of the
postmaster PID started by pg_ctl is more stable using the WIN32
internals that this patch relies on. I am not sure that this
suggestion is right, though, because we should still care about the
clock skew case as written in the surrounding comments? Even if
that's OK, I would assume that this should be an independent patch,
written on top of the proposed v6-0001.
Tom, could you comment about that? Perhaps my notes did not catch
what you meant.
