Harald provided me some pointers at pgday in Stuttgart to make it work
with windows but ... hum I have not windows and wasn't enought
motivated to make it work on it if no one need it.

I didn't search recently on the different kernels, but any kernel
supporting mincore and posix_fadvise should work. (so probably the
same set of kernel that support our 'effective_io_concurrency').

Still waiting for (free)BSD support .....
