Hi all,
I just get postgresql from cvs and could compile perfectly on cygwin!!
Great work guys!!!

But when I run the initdb script, it fails with the following message:


The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

Fixing permissions on existing directory /var/pgsqlcvs/... ok

initdb failed.


I'm running with an account name "Francisco Figueiredo"

I know this can't be a major issue, but I just wanted let you know.
I could easily workaround by passing a "non-spaced" name as the super 
user with the -U option.

psql also seems to be with problems as it says it can't find PQFreemem 
in the pq.dll

But I could use the psql from the 7.3.2 release :)

Again, great work guys!

initdb problems handling super username with spaces.

I've put in some fixes for the most obvious problems, though I'd not
want to swear there are no other places that are careless about this.

Sounds like a version-compatibility problem.  Sure you've got the right DLL?
