Thanks for that pointer.  "runas" seems to be no good in batch files
since it asks for a password interactively, but I managed to get the
tablespace test to pass by running it like this:

test_script: - net user testuser password1234! /add - psexec.exe -u testuser -p password1234! -w
c:\projects\postgres\src\tools\msvc perl.exe vcregress.pl check

(It probably goes without saying but I'll say it anyway for anyone who
might find this: this plaintext-password-in-script-files stuff is
intended for use on self-destructing isolated build bot images only
and should never be done on a computer you care about.)

Hooray!  Now I can go and figure out why my Parallel Hash regression
test is failing with file permissions problems on Windows...
