I have reproduced this. The problem is:(void) signal(SIGUSR1, sighandler);(void) signal(SIGINT, sighandler);    /*
deprecated,use SIGUSR1 */ 


None of these signals exist on WIN32. I think the only reason it
compiles at all is that we bring in *some* of our signals emulation
code, but certainly not all of it.

If I just move those two lines into the #ifndef WIN32 block just
around it, it compiles and doesn't crash on running-with-no-arguments.
I haven't tried to actually use it though - can someone confirm if
this will actually make pg_standby not work properly?
