    FYI:  Running

    $ ipc-daemon &

    from user 'Frank' when CygIPC is already running (as an NT service
under the SYSTEM|Administ context) caused ipc-daemon to fire up and then
die almost immediately with a [Done] message.  Original NT service is
still up and running.  However, it does NOT show the message you list
above.  Thought you should know.

    Haven't tried it as 'postgres' yet.
