If you have the patience and a github account, you can push code onto
a public github branch having also applied the patch mentioned at
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Continuous_Integration, go to
appveyor.com and tell it to watch your git hub account, and then it'll
build and test every time you push a new tweak. Takes a few minutes
to get the answer each time you try something, but I have managed to
get things working on Windows that way.
