Looks like it should work for current Windows, yeah. This is the
approach taken by OpenSSL [1].

It'd be sad to copy-paste the API bug into a new place, though. If
we're going to disconnect this API from SOCKET, can we use uintptr_t
instead on Windows? If someone eventually adds an alternative to
PQsocket(), as Tom suggested in [2], it'd be nice not to have to
duplicate this callback too.
