This is the 'proof of concept' cygwin windows build.  Strangely, I have
a newer build than the one on the ftp server.  Is there a binary version
of postgres with Jan's patch available?

The only binary I know of Jan's work is 7.2 on peerdirect's web site.  I
have the patch brough up to 7.3, and will be applying it in pieces this
month.

Uh Oh.

When you say "newer version", what gives the feeling of it being newer?

In the "Proof of Concept" Windows series, there's only been that first 
build.  It's going to take some time for the next one as well, as the 
Win2K PC it was developed on had a problem and had to wipe the hard 
drive.  (i.e. all of the packaging scripts, data, etc).  :-/

Regards and best wishes,
