I tried that, but these extra signals are needed even in the frontend for
pgkill(), etc. My next thought was to simply ignore signal() errors for
the extra signals, but I don't think that's very nice because it just masks
broken code. Finally, I settled on modifying initdb's setup_signals() to
use WIN32 checks instead of checking for the signals themselves. This is
how it's done elsewhere, and this is apparently all that's needed to make
cfbot's Windows run happy.

I've also attached a 0002 that removes the redefinitions of SIG_ERR and
friends. That looks good on cfbot, but we'll see what the buildfarm has to
say...
