The Windows animals seem to be in good shape, except hamerkop that
dies on "vcregress upgradecheck" when the TAP tests are disabled
causing the buildfarm client to stop.  My idea to use upgradecheck
leads to more code than just moving the test to bincheck so let's
reuse the suggestion from Andres upthread and disable completely
upgradecheck, keeping the target around only for compatibility.  The
attached does that, and the test of pg_upgrade would go through
bincheck instead.

It is late here, I'll try to get that patched up tomorrow.
