Don't know him either. But he has a webpage from which his tools (take
the ones for CygWin 20.1) can be downloaded:

Installing PostgreSQL on NT:

---

It can be done by done by typing configure, make and make install.

1. Install the Cygwin package
2. Update to EGCS 1.1.2
   (This may be optional.)

1. Install the Andy Piper Tools (http://www.xemacs.freeserve.co.uk/)
   (This may be optional.)

1. Download the Cygwin32 IPC Package by Ludovic LANGE 
   (http://www.multione.capgemini.fr/tools/pack_ipc/
2. Untar the package and follow the readme instructions.
3. I tested 1.03.
4. I used the \cygwin-b20\h-i568-cygwin32\i586-cygwin32\lib and
\cygwin-b20\h-i568-cygwin32\i586-cygwin32\include\sys instead of the
/usr/local/lib and usr/local/include/sys.

1. Download the current version of PostgreSQL.
2. Untar the package.
3. Copy the files from \pgsql\src\win32 according to the readme file.
3. Edit \pgsql\src\template\cygwin32 if needed (I had to adjust the YFLAGS
path).
4. ./configure
5. make
6. create the directory /usr/local/pgsql manually: the mkdir cannot create a
directory 2 levels deep in one step.
7. make install
8. cd /usr/lical/pgsql/doc
9. make install
10. Set the environmental data
11. Initdb --username=jkr (do not run this command as administrator)

12. Open a new Cygwin command prompt
13. Start "ipc-deamon&" (background proces)
14. Start "postmaster -i 2>&1 > /tmp/postgres.log &" (background proces)
15. Start "tail -f /tmp/postgres.log" to see the messages

16. cd /usr/src/pgsql/src/test/regress
17. make all runtest

All test should be run, allthought the latest snapshot I tested (18-4)
appears to have some problems with locking.

No idea.  I would be glad to add more information to the file if I knew
anything.  Perhaps the author can add something.

It might be nice to say what and where the Andy Piper Tools are
(http://www.xemacs.freeserve.co.uk/) and where the cygwin32 IPC package can
be gotten (http://www.multione.capgemini.fr/tools/pack_ipc/)

Also I didn't use the Piper tools or EGCS 1.1.2, and as far as I can tell,
it is working (6.5)..
