What version of Cygwin are you using?  I think that I recall problems
such as the above in the past.  I just tried with a DLL that I built
from CVS on or about 2001-12-28 11:30 and had no problems.  FWIW I'm
using Win2K SP1.

Another idea is to ssh into the postgres account (assuming that is the
user running the postmaster service) and issue the kill -1 from there.

HTH,
