This happened to me as well. It occurs because you haven't
applied the source patch. You can read out and download it
here:

Note: Peter Schindler's remark above is correct. PostgreSQL
will not run under Cygwin 1.1.8. There was a problem with fork
I believe that caused the problem. It has been fixed, although
you will need to download the most recent snapshot of cygwin to
get it.
