FWIW, I saw warnings I never saw before when compiling Python under
Cygwin gcc 3.3.1 yesterday. I presume gcc 3.3.1 is pickier or more
"chatty" than it was before. Anyway, Python still passed its full
regression test.

Are you getting hangs or connection refused errors. The Cygwin
PostgreSQL README documents the following issue:
1. make check can generate spurious regression test failures due to overflowing the the listen() backlog queue
whichgenerates connection refused errors. Note that make installcheck does not have this problem since it runs all
testssequentially instead of in large concurrent groups.

The above will not have any affects under Cygwin. IIRC, the listen()
backlog is 200 under server versions of Windows (e.g., 2000 Advanced
Server) and 5 on all other versions (e.g., XP Pro).
Can you try make installcheck instead?
Thanks,
Jason
