By extracting pg_config from the following:

    ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/pub/dev/test-rpms/postgresql-devel-7.1RC2-1.i386.rpm

I have discovered that at least one PostgreSQL Distribution is
configured as follows:

    --enable-locale --with-CXX --prefix=/usr --with-perl
    --enable-multibyte --with-tcl --with-odbc --enable-syslog
    --with-python --sysconfdir=/etc/pgsql --mandir=/usr/man
    --docdir=/usr/doc --includedir=/usr/include/pgsql
    --datadir=/usr/share/pgsql

Should I be using the above?  Or, at least the directory affecting
options (with possibly pgsql replaced by postgresql as you previously
suggested)?

My goal is to provide a pre-built Cygwin PostgreSQL distribution that
best serves the community.  Any guidance to help me achieve this goal
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason
