I've tested this:
psql to a backend in a test db, do create tablespace
kill -9 (using taskman, say about 5 seconds later)
psql to a backend - tablespace is there. do drop tablespace
kill -9 (using taskman, say about 5 seconds later)
psql to a backend - tablespace is gone
create database also appears to work from what I can tell.
Is that enouhg testing, or are more steps needed?
>Is there any reason lstat() wouldn't work on Windows?
It's #defined to stat(), which should work. It won't know anything about
our symlinks, but that shouldn't matter.
