The above is the crux of your problem. Until you get the above to work,
PostgreSQL is sure to fail. Sorry, but my only suggestion will require
some effort. I recommend building a (debug-able) version of cygipc with
tracing enabled. You may be able to determine what the problem is from
the trace output. Otherwise, there is always gdb...
