Comment (by robe):

 I was using a MingW compiled 8.3. I was actually able to eventually
 compile it again under MingW after deleting my install director.  It seems
 that somehow our make check is messing up the path or something in MingW
 is messing up the path.  I couldn't find more anywhere, but noticed that
 if I launched

 my 8.3 psql from within MinGW and did a

 help,  I got the same more error.  So I think its the psql that is somehow
 triggering it.  why it doesn't trigger it for my MingW installed
 PostgreSQL 8.4 I have no clue.

 But running my 8.3 psql outside of MingW seems to work fine.

 Note that I don't believe MingW includes more.  All articles I read seem
 to suggest using less instead of more (perhaps maybe 8.4 is using less?).
 But copying my more.com from windows (and even renaming it to more.exe and
 putting in my msys/1.0/bin doesn't seem to resolve the situation).
