But, the following README file:
/usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.2.README
was right there on your PC, if you let Cygwin's setup.exe install
PostgreSQL as it normally does.

By the above, do you mean the following:
2. Install the cygipc package, available at
<http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/cygipc/>.
Do not use versions prior to 1.04, they will not work
I suggested that cygipc be adding as a contrib package to Cygwin.
Due to reasonable licensing and technical issues, it was decide not to
include cygipc with Cygwin. However, there is some current activity to
include System V IPC directly into the Cygwin DLL and a new server
process. Unfortunately, there is no ETA for this major enhancement.
Please search the Cygwin archives if you are interested in the details.
