If I remember correctly I sourced the appropriate vcvars.bat script from the VS version I wished to build PostgreSQL with ahead of building in the relevant shell. I'll check this later this afternoon.

I'll hold off on merging though until you have a chance to comment as to whether or not you think this is odd behavior.

PostgreSQL <=9.5.2 won't build with VS2015. When I build 9.4.4 it worked for me as I have VS2013 and VS2015 on my Windows laptop and I hadn't even noticed that it had picked VS2013. I have added a patch such that PostgreSQL >=9.4 and <=9.5.2 builds with VS2015 and updated meta.yaml accordingly.
