The Windows animals don't like this:

# Running: pg_basebackup --no-sync -cfast -U backupuser --target server:C:\\prog\\bf\\root\\HEAD\\pgsql.build\\src\\bin\\pg_basebackup\\tmp_check\\tmp_test_VGMM/backuponserver -X none
pg_basebackup: error: connection to server at "127.0.0.1", port 59539 failed: FATAL:  SSPI authentication failed for user "backupuser"
not ok 108 - backup target server

#   Failed test 'backup target server'
#   at t/010_pg_basebackup.pl line 527.

Not sure whether we have a standard method to get around that.
