postmaster is a symlink to postgres. Under Cygwin, you should have the
following:
$ ls -l /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster
lrw-r--r-- 1 jt Domain U 23 Dec 28 12:33 /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -> postgres.exe

You should probably build all of PostgreSQL yourself. While you are at
it, I suggest using 7.1beta5 or later (i.e., CVS) since they work better
under Cygwin.

What is the above? That is, from where did you get it?
