As you have already notice, there are little people looking as this
list... that is because now that we have a native port to windows use
the cygwin version is deprecated... and i am suggesting you to do that
as soon as possible...

There other list you can write here: http://www.postgresql.org/community/lists/

About your question the reason is that temp tables un functions must
be declared within a EXECUTE... something like:


CREATE FUNCTION ffoo() RETURNS void AS $$
DECLARE
         EXECUTE 'CREATE TEMP TABLE tmp_foo (fld int4)'
END;
$$ LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
