thanks it sounds be the good reason :
---------------
1217: checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 ) works
configure:1233: gcc -o conftest -O2 conftest.c -lcygipc 1>&5
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-2/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -lcygipc
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 1228 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
main(){return(0);}
-------------------------
i'm newbie in posgresql, i don't know if it's good to begin with a RC
version, so if u can say me what to do. i've checked all component in cygwin
setup so where's this 'cygipc 1.09.' ?
If i should install RC1, after download and install, how use it ?
thanks for youyr help.

Try checking config.log for the exact details of why you are getting the
above failure. IIRC, this is caused by not installing cygipc 1.09.
BTW, you should already have PostgreSQL 7.1RC2 installed, if you chose
to install of all Cygwin. See the following for details:
