This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a shared
memory segment exceeded available memory or swap space.
To reduce the request size (currently 1499136 bytes), reduce
PostgreSQL's shared_buffers parameter (currently 64) and/or
its max_connections parameter (currently 32).

Does the following from the README apply?
2. It is recommended to delete all cygipc temporary files
(/tmp/cygipc* and /tmp/MultiFile*) before starting postmaster under
a different user account. Otherwise, postmaster will fail to start
due to IPC errors. Note cygipc 2.x automatically removes these
files during normal shutdown so this issue has been essentially
obviated.
