Actually, it is a cleanup. The original path.c::get_progname() used an
exit() call in WIN32 because it didn't have frontend/backend-specific
code. With specific versions, I could return a NULL from get_progname
and print a relivant message in postmaster.c on failure. I doubt it
would ever happen, but it was a cleanup. It isn't significant enough to
justify making a server-specific version of path.c on its own, however.
