The above is a known problem, see the following for a workaround:
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/mhonarc/pgsql-ports/2001-04/msg00137.html
Please read the README that is part of the standard Cygwin PostgreSQL
distribution:
/usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.README
I have attached a copy for your convenience.
Please post to pgsql-cygwin@postgresql.org instead of sending private
email, so others can benefit too.
Thanks,
Jason
