Does it mean that I need to uninstall PostgreSQL and reinstall it with GSSAPI support? I used the One click installer downloaded from http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows to install PostgreSQL and I’m not sure how to include GSSAPI support.

Gssapi is *not* required on windows. Sspi support is always available on windows. Gssapi is only required to use Sspi on non-windows platforms.
Perhaps that sentence in the docs need to be changed to be more clear?
