Yes, I'd be happy to do this, assuming it doesn't take long to learn and 
perform the above procedure.

I'd also like to get a little bit of testing time in with our software that 
uses this stuff (the mingw postgresql port) to verify that it is known to 
work in at least some scenarios, so I'm not feeding the project broken stuff.

I'll assume that the best directions for the mingwPORT checkin procedures 
are Earnie's notes below; otherwise, if there's a link to 
additional/more-detailed, please let me know.

Also, anyone is welcome to remind me if I don't get to this in 2 weeks time 
(which may be how long we take to get a little test time in for the 
postgresql build); if that's not appropriate, please let me know.
