Give me a couple of days to get clear of somestuff
then I will try upgrade to 7.2 and post all 'if any' Cygwin
specific patches that I have to make

FWIW -  This will all be coordinated with the 
'Cygwin PostgreSQL port maintainers' 

In the meantime  the standard install script trips up on
the '.exe' extension.  Probably easiest for Cygwin users
to just manually indicate this in their local Makefiles

ie add '.exe' to all the executable names  wherever they are used
within the makefile

pgsql2shp
   becomes
pgsql2shp.exe

Hopefully I will have a more 'elegant' solution shortly
