Dmitriy,
You will need to apply the attached patch before the 7.0.3 regression
tests will run under Cygwin. The following is the instructions to apply
the patch:
$ cd postgresql-7.0.3/src/test/regress
$ # save run_check.patch to the current directory
$ patch <run_check.patch

To resolve the above, perform the following before executing make runcheck:
$ export MAKE=make

This seems to imply that $0 contains unquoted spaces.

Not sure about this one.

You either do not have an /etc/passwd file or it does not contain a
proper entry for the current user. Use the following:
$ mkpasswd -l >/etc/passwd
or
$ mkpasswd -d >/etc/passwd
to generate a valid passwd file for a workgroup or domain environment,
respectively.
After all of this, you may find that the regression tests hang due to
postmaster aborting. See the following for more details:
