hello!

That's my very first day with postgres, so please be kind...

- cygwin installed OK
- it seems that postgres compiled & installed OK
- initdb created db structures
- ipc-daemon started OK
- but postmaster -i fails with messages:

c:\cygwin\usr\local\pgsql\bin\postgres.exe: ***
recreate_mmaps_after_fork_failed
Startup failed - abort
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x71e0000): Invalid argument
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x70b0000): Invalid argument
NOTICE: IpcMemoryDetach: shmdt(0x0x71a0000): Invalid argument

I'm able to run and use postgres in the backend mode.

Any help appreciated.

Peep
