I was using gcc 2.95.1 and Cygwin B20.1 (plus cygwin1.dll snapshot from
01/19/1999 availbale from the Cygwin site) to run on WinNT. What version of
Cygwin are you using?

I don't know if there was a change in the DECLARE_CYGWIN_DLL macro - you can
check plain B20.1

And as far as I know it is not possible to run PostgreSQL on Win95/98. Their
win32 api lacks some required functions for supporting SysV shared memory in
the cygipc library.

But there is a red dot in the Winndows 95 - row of the Postgres - column
at http://www.postgresql.org/doxlist.html
(In opposite to the Macintosch - row ! There's a white dot with a
[client only] - annotation)

Someone should remove the red dot, if its wrong.

I use B20.1, too, but with the Jan 15th 1999 - patch for Win95,
libcrypt for B20.1 and IPC - package 1.03
I compiled with gcc 2.95.2.
Postgres : 6.5.3 (stable version)
