I'm pleased to hear that you appreciate my Cygwin Python and PostgreSQL
packages.

BTW, if you are willing to use the current PostgreSQL CVS, then you can
try out plpython now -- all of the required Cygwin patches have already
been submitted and accepted.  You don't have to wait for PostgreSQL 7.2.

Thanks to Rob Collins and Greg Smith, significant progress has been made
on Cygwin's pthreads support.  Hopefully, I will be releasing a Cygwin
Python that supports threading soon.
