Subject: Fix tablespace creation WAL replay to work on Windows.
X-Git-Tag: REL9_2_9~88
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a496a12b3a85764ac87009220e2d5adf0dfb765;p=postgresql

Fix tablespace creation WAL replay to work on Windows.

The code segment that removes the old symlink (if present) wasn't clued
into the fact that on Windows, symlinks are junction points which have
to be removed with rmdir().

Backpatch to 9.0, where the failing code was introduced.
