The above sounds like a version mismatch between postgresql and cygipc.
If you are running postgresql 7.3.4-2 then you must run cygipc 2.01-2.
Did you forget to start ipc-daemon2?

The above is not possible -- i.e., su and login do *not* work under
Cygwin except under very privileged accounts (e.g., LocalSystem). Use
ssh (e.g., ssh postgres(at)localhost) instead to simulate su.
