No, nothing has changed.
As per my README, I run postmaster as an NT service via cygrunsrv:
cygrunsrv ... --termsig INT --shutdown
^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^
The above helps to ensure a clean shutdown when the NT box is shutdown.
I personally would *not* want PostgreSQL to automatically start back up
after an "unclean" shutdown.
