Yes, but see below...

Where did you get the "PostgreSQL 7.1.2-3 sources" from?  Maybe the
7.1.2-3 binary is available at the same place?  Note that the cygipc
binary can be used -- there is no need to build cygipc yourself.

There is no need to do the above -- the linker will find libcygipc.a in
/usr/local/lib.

The above are just warnings and can be safely ignored.  So, it appears
that you have successfully built your own PostgreSQL 7.1.2 unless you
are getting others errors.

I happen to have 7.1.2-1, 7.1.2-3, and 7.1.3-2 lying around.  I can send
you one of them.  However, I would really prefer that you solve the
above build problems (if any) and use your own build.  I can't be in the
"business" of supporting multiple Cygwin PostgreSQL versions.  I'm not
getting paid enough from the current version to warrant it. :,)
