postgres.exe is supposed to be there so chances are very bright that some problem in your installation. at the time of
makeinstall , have you got this message at the end 
"PostgreSQL successfully made. Ready to install" like this,if you can remember. however if you r not sure, just do a
test, run this command 'make all install' under your 
source folder and see what you are getting at the end.

this is basic parameter which i am using to compile source .

./configure --prefix=<some path> --with-libs=<path to krb5>/krb5/lib/i386:<path to openssl>/openssl/lib
make
make install


Just curious:why you r not trying to install postgres using the binary installer (just one click and you are done )
