It looks like your ipc-daemon is dying for some reason. It may be worth looking at version 1.14 see http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/cygipc/
I have a similar system up and running with no problems.

Subject: [ADMIN] Cygwin - Postgres won't start
Hi,
I previously successfully installed postgres (7.3.2-1) under cygwin - thanks
for your help. I found it accelent. Really. Everything - at least those
functions I use - is working absoultly the same way as under Linux.
But I decided (unfortunatelly) to set up XFree86 - just for fun. By now I
can't start my postgres server. X is ok, but postgres is down.
What could be the reason of this problem. I start ipc-daemon and try to
start postgres. I would like to underline that it had been working before I
installed X.

My original startup file looks like this:

ipc-daemon 2>&1 &
pg_ctl start -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -m fast 2>&1 &

I am looking forward to your answer. Thank you in advance.
