Looking through the code, it seems that it's because someone thought
that breaking SSL would be easier than replacing the pqGetpwuid() calls
that are used to find out the user's home directory.

Does Windows even have a concept of home directory? What would be a
reasonable equivalent to ~/.postgresql/ ?
