+1 to move on for both of these. I got convinced about the benefits
of C11 and the simplifications we could get from it in the Postgres
code base during your presentation at pgconf.dev.
Dropping VS 2015 and going up to VS 2019 brings other benefits,
__VA_ARGS__ coming in mind. I am wondering what's the state of
locales, actually. We've had some pain with VS 2015 as we lacked
locale_name in _locale_t, for example. That may be worth a second
look to see if some simplifications can happen in this area. I don't
think so at quick glance through the VS docs, unfortunately, but I may
be wrong, of course..
