According to the documentation, it's not supported. http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/install-win32.html "Building using MinGW or Cygwin uses the normal build system, see Chapter 15 and the specific notes in Section 15.8.5 and Section 15.8.2. These builds cannot generate 64-bit binaries. Cygwin is not recommended and should only be used for older versions of Windows where the native build does not work, such as Windows 98. MinGW is only recommended if you are building other modules using it. The official binaries are built using Visual Studio." -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
