The ecpg regression tests came in when you started to rewrite the old
regression script. Actually we exchanged some e-mails about this topic at
that time :-)

To get ecpg regression tests on msvc we could either convert the script to
a .c file as well or think about a general regression test library that
could be used by contrib or pgfoundry modules as well. Does anybody have
pointers to the archives on this topic?
