      Fix failure to rotate postmaster log file for size reasons on Windows. · 14ba9b11
      Tom Lane authored 
      When we eliminated "unnecessary" wakeups of the syslogger process, we
broke size-based logfile rotation on Windows, because on that platform
data transfer is done in a separate thread.  While non-Windows platforms
would recheck the output file size after every log message, Windows only
did so when the control thread woke up for some other reason, which might
be quite infrequent.  Per bug #7814 from Tsunezumi.  Back-patch to 9.2
where the problem was introduced.
