"Owner" is an administrator.
postmaster's failing because GetRawDatabaseInfo can't find a database named
"Owner" (which is my username). It only finds databases named "template1"
and "template0". Could this be a problem with initdb? I.e. was initdb
supposed to store a database matching my username?
Also, when not running in debug, postmaster crashes after reporting the
error. Sadly, the crash does not occur when running within gdb.

I will offer one more suggestion before bowing out to other XP (Home)
users who should be able to help better than I can.
One XP Home user noted that the user running postmaster as a service
must be an "administrative" user and not a "guest" user. Is "Owner" an
"administrative" user? If not, then make it so and try again.
I'm sorry that I cannot be of more help, but I have no access to XP.
Can a XP (Home) user help out Seth here?
Thanks,
Jason
