I looked over the proposed patch a bit and found some problems --- in
particular, if I read M$'s documentation about MultiByteToWideChar
correctly, they chose an API that fails for zero-length input, and
so you gotta program around that. Also, varstr_cmp() cannot assume
it gets null-terminated input.

I cannot test the attached revised patch; please check it out.

regards, tom lane
