Did you forgot to read the FAQ:

    http://www.us.postgresql.org/docs/faq-mswin

or README:

    /usr/doc/Cygwin/postgresql-7.1.3.README

Did you try to search the web?

    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=initdb+hang&btnG=Google+Search

BTW, a pre-built PostgreSQL 7.1.3 is part of the Cygwin distribution.
