Mine was a hack based on reading that sa_family_t should be 16 bits (in RFC 2553 IIRC) to solve a cygwin specific problem.
If you have a general solution then that is much better than mine

I am confused why you didn't like the following patch I posted, which pulls the family data type length right out of the structure, rather than having to configure it for every OS that doesn't have sa_family_t?

On cygwin sa_family_t was undeclared, adding the following line: typedef unsigned short sa_family_t; to both: src/port/getaddrinfo.c src/include/libpq/pqcomm.h
Isn't the attached or fixing Cygwin itself a better approach?
Yes it does seem better, attached is a proposed patch to cygwin.h & configure.in (incase cygwin gets it in future)
Have tested with make installcheck & it works fine.
If you see no problems I will sumit to patches
thanks,
