I ended up rewriting this patch hunk a bit to handle earlier OOM
failures; let me know what you think.

v18 is the result of plenty of yak shaving now that the Windows build
is working. In addition to Daniel's changes as discussed upthread,
- I have rebased over v2 of the SASL-refactoring patches
- the last CompilerWarnings failure has been fixed
- the py.test suite now runs on Windows (but does not yet completely pass)
- py.test has been completely disabled for the 32-bit Debian test in
Cirrus; I don't know if there's a way to install 32-bit Python
side-by-side with 64-bit

We are now very, very close to green.

The new oauth_validator tests can't work on Windows, since the client
doesn't support OAuth there. The python/server tests can handle this
case, since they emulate the client behavior; do we want to try
something similar in Perl?
