The attached patch fixes a problem with InstallXLogFileSegment()'s use

of link() under Cygwin:

Note that it appears that BeOS and Netware also have the above or
similar problem.

I have only verified that PostgreSQL builds under Cygwin with this
patch.
Since I cannot reproduce the problem, I cannot verify that the proposed
patch solves it.  Nevertheless, both Barry Pederson and David P.
Caldwell
attest that this patch solves the problem.  See the following for
details:
