New README.NT info:

[Added by bjm]

By default, PostgreSQL clients like psql communicate by default using
unix domain sockets, which don't work on NT. Start the postmaster with
-i, and when connecting to the database from a client, set the PGHOST
environment variable to 'localhost' or supply the hostname on the
command line.
