It is possible to call it WinNT/Cygwin because there can be a port using
UWIN or even a "native" port.

I have not tested pgsql on W2K, but I am testing Win95 and it looks
promissing - it is possible to run initdb, start postmaster and only a newly
created backend dies (with segfault) after it receives a connection from a
client. And such an error could be solved (I hope ;-). It has no problems
with the IPC stuff.
