I don't, but I don't (unfortunately) use PostgreSQL seriously anymore...

No, nothing has changed.

As per my README, I run postmaster as an NT service via cygrunsrv:

    cygrunsrv ...  --termsig INT --shutdown
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^

The above helps to ensure a clean shutdown when the NT box is shutdown.

I personally would *not* want PostgreSQL to automatically start back up
after an "unclean" shutdown.
