I'm sorry to inform you that either the above patch doesn't fix this
problem or I did not install it incorrectly.

I used the following procedure:

    1. downloaded and extracted cygipc source from:
       http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/cygipc/cygipc-1.08-1-src.tar.gz
    2. applied your patch
    3. removed original cygipc 1.08
    4. make; make install of cygipc
    5. make clean; make; make install of postgres

Then I ran my multiple (JDBC) connection test case and tried to kill
postmaster with a SIGTERM.  Unfortunately, it still took more than one
SIGTERM to shutdown postmaster.

It is very easy to set up your own environment to facilitate tracking
down this problem.  Would you like me to send you my recipe?  I'm just
driving a slightly modified version of the 7.0.3 PostgreSQL JDBC driver
with the Protomatter 1.1.2 JDBC Connection Manager:

    http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=261

The Protomatter package comes with a test client that exhibits this
problem.

Thanks,
Jason
