There is "FATAL:  Syntaxfehler in Datei
»[...]/PostgreSQL-8.0.3/postgresql.conf«, Zeile 322, bei »#«"
That's the error message I got on the console.
I'm by far no Windows guru and the eventlog ... you know ... ;)
But still, it doesn't say anything about premature EOF or something.
Instead it rises a syntaxerror on a comment line.

show-stopper, I'm afraid. I was just lucky to fgure it out since
obviously I had no backup  postgresql.conf .  ;)
