+
+Yes.  We rejected environment-variable-based xlog location for reasons
+that apply equally well to Windows.  The xlog location *must* be stored
+in a physical file in the data directory; anything else is too unsafe.
+The current technology for that is a symlink.
+
+While it doesn't have to be a symlink as opposed to some sort of config
+file, I don't have the slightest problem with saying that we don't
+support relocation of xlog on older Windoid platforms.
