You can use cygwin to run PostgreSQL on windows (www.cygwin.com).
There is a prebuilt binary with the distribution.
however you will need to also install cygipc from:
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/cygipc/index.html
when the ipc-daemon is running you should then be able to initdb.
The cygwin distribution comes with a readme for more info.
Also there is a pgsql-cygwin mailing list.
