I went for 8.0.1. Now compiling that (I need to compile it
with enable-thread-safety) it throws "THREAD-SAFETY
requires POSIX signals". Has this issue been looked upon
earlier .. I am not totally sure if we need the
thread-safey flag on windows or not, but it would be nice
to know if someone has seen this earlier..
Thanks..

Hi,
I am trying to build postgres 7.4.5 on windows (200) on
mingw/msys env. I have installed win32-pthreads to
enable-thread safet feature. Couple of issues that I
wanted to check:.
7.4 is not supported natively on win32. If you need it on
windows, you
need to use cygwin. If you can, go to 8.0.1 which is
natively supported.
(No, it's not just a matter of finding the right way to
compile it.
There is a *lot* of code changes between 7.4 and 8.0 for
win32
compatibility)
