Thanks for the patches.

I wonder though if it is advisable to support Cygwin if this requires
extra effort from our side, compared to a regular Linux or Windows
environment. I actually like the project but I wouldn't recommend
running Postgres on prod, and for development these days it's simpler
to use WSL / VirtualBox / Raspberry Pi, or running Postgres natively
on Windows.
