Native Windows Postgres 8.x works fine with GRASS on Cygwin or *NIX.
db.login driver=pg database=yourdb user=you password=yourPassword
db.connect driver=pg database="host=localhost,dbname=yourdb"
db.test test-test1
And the native Windows Postgres is so much easier to manage than the
Cygwin version!
