Below is my first attempt at getting help. A nice person responded and offered
the solution below. I followed it exactly and still was not able to get past
these errors. (What's this business of trying to link ...dummy.s to tas.s!?) I'm
running NT 4.0 WS/sp5 and am using cygwin DLL 1.1.14, trying to install Postgres
7.0.2. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

This is the same problem I posted to this list. I received the attached
e-mail from Jason Tishler and it works great!
