Tom Lane 79193c75f8 Fix assorted issues in pg_ctl's pgwin32_CommandLine(). 
Ensure that the invocation command for postgres or pg_ctl runservice
double-quotes the executable's pathname; failure to do this leads to
trouble when the path contains spaces.

Also, ensure that the path ends in ".exe" in both cases and uses
backslashes rather than slashes as directory separators.  The latter issue
is reported to confuse some third-party tools such as Symantec Backup Exec.

Also, rewrite the function to avoid buffer overrun issues by using a
PQExpBuffer instead of a fixed-size static buffer.  Combinations of
very long executable pathnames and very long data directory pathnames
could have caused trouble before, for example.

Back-patch to all active branches, since this code has been like this
for a long while.

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:

	http://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.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  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
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
