The port (i.e. package) number is free to change.  It only affects the
"-x" (e.g., "-1") in the tarball names -- that's it.

Did you use the (exact) patch at the end of:

    http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-cygwin/2002-04/msg00057.php

If so, then please confirm this fact and I will submit this patch to
pgsql-patches for consideration.  If not, then please try again with
this (exact) patch.  If you are still successful, then I will submit it.

I need this assistance, because I cannot (easily) reproduce this problem
myself.

Thanks,
Jason
