It passed the test suite. This should already work better on Windows,
because we already *do* look-up the program, and exit from
mingw_spawnvpe() before the equivalent of fork+exec happens.

It does help a bit. The interesting thing is that the only case where I
can now reproduces the unwanted behavior with the unpatched version is
when all output was completely read by 'less' and git already waits in
wait_for_pager(), such as in 'git show'. But Ctrl-C'ing a 'git log -p'
works as expected even without these patches. With the patches, the 'git
show' case now works as well.

But we need to insert the patch below *before* 2/4. The test case needs a
change, too,(exit code on Windows is 3, not 130) but I'll keep that in my
repository, like with all other Windows related test suite changes.

Subject: Windows: Fix signal numbers

We had defined some SIG_FOO macros that appear in the code, but that are
not supported on Windows, in order to make the code compile.  But a
subsequent change will assert that a signal number is non-zero.  We now
use the signal numbers that are commonly used on POSIX systems.
