That is something you need to talk to the citext creators about. Ideally,
they shold provide a stackbuilder compatible binary download for windows.

EnterpriseDB is a different product from PostgreSQL. There may be some
moduels that work in both, but don't count on it. For one thing I think
the latest EDB is based on 8.2, not 8.3. But there could be a lot of other
reasons as well. If you want a module to load in PostgreSQL, it has to be a
PostgreSQL module.

I think you need to talk to the citext people. Unless somebody else has
already made a package available somewhere?
