The above is a known problem that has already been fixed.  See the
following for details:

    http://www.postgresql.org/mhonarc/pgsql-ports/2001-02/msg00014.html

A third alternative to solve this problem is to use Cygwin 1.1.8-2 with
cygwin1.dll replaced by one from a recent Cygwin snapshot.  In retrospect,
this is probably the best solution until Cygwin 1.3.0 is released.
