Have a look at http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/interactive/xfunc-c.html
You'll almost certainly want to extern "c" any routines you want to call from postgres (this'll stop C++ name mangaling).
Also this is the pgsql-cygwin list, meant for the cygwin MS Windows version of postgres.
I suspect you'll probably find more help on pgsql-general@postgresql.org
