Noah Misch 1c1a572d05 MSVC: Test whether 32-bit Perl needs -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T. 
Commits 5a5c2feca3 and
b5178c5d08 introduced support for modern
MSVC-built, 32-bit Perl, but they broke use of MinGW-built, 32-bit Perl
distributions like Strawberry Perl and modern ActivePerl.  Perl has no
robust means to report whether it expects a -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T ABI, so
test this.  Back-patch to 9.3 (all supported versions).

The chief alternative was a heuristic of adding -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T when
$Config{gccversion} is nonempty.  That banks on every gcc-built Perl
using the same ABI.  gcc could change its default ABI the way MSVC once
did, and one could build Perl with gcc and the non-default ABI.

The GNU make build system could benefit from a similar test, without
which it does not support MSVC-built Perl.  For now, just add a comment.
Most users taking the special step of building Perl with MSVC probably
build PostgreSQL with MSVC.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
