Hmm. That would seem to have it. Can you check the version on your
SHELL32.DLL?
The MSDN docs for the version in question
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/shellc
c/platform/shell/reference/functions/shgetspecialfolderpath.asp) claims
it needs either Win2k or The IE 4.0 Desktop Update. Which resolves to
shell32.dll version 4.71 or later.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

WINNT\System32\Shell32.dll is version 4.00, so that appears to be the
problem.
According to this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q165695/ Windows
Desktop update was included with IE 4, but not with IE 5 or later.
Further, if you want to install Windows Desktop Update you have to
first remove IE 5 or later. And finally it says that Windows Desktop
Update can only be installed using the IE 4 setup, but this is no
longer available from Microsoft. What a mess.
