I'm thinking rename the current faq to faq_win32_cygwin and then create a new
faq faq_win32_native based the pginstaller one. Does anyone feel they ought
to be combined? I guess another alternative is jut remove faq_mswin from the
main sources and then leave it up to cygwin/native projects to maintain thier
own faqs, with perhaps a single question in the main postgresql pointing to
both of the other faqs... anyone have a preference?
