The above is the crux of your problem.  Until you get the above to work,
PostgreSQL is sure to fail.  Sorry, but my only suggestion will require
some effort.  I recommend building a (debug-able) version of cygipc with
tracing enabled.  You may be able to determine what the problem is from
the trace output.  Otherwise, there is always gdb...
