Hi Mark

I tried your distribution...thanks for it

I tried C:\pgsql75win

set PGDATA = C:\pgsql75win\data
set PGHOME = C:\pgsql75win
set PGHOST = localhost
set PATH = C:\pgsql75win\bin;C:\pgsql75win\lib;%PATH%
initdb -L C:/pgsql75win/share

I replaced 
          $libdir 

by 

            C:/pgsql75win/lib 

in  C:\pgsql75win\share\postgis.sql

I made a base test

posmaster

I opened an other DOS prompt and I do 

cd C:\pgsql75win\share
createdb test
createlang plpgsql test
psql -d test -f postgis.sql

I noticed that there is a error on the file
postgis.sql

It is

psql:postgistest.sql:574: ERROR:  could not find
function "mem_size" in file "C:
/pgsql75win/lib/libpostgis.dll"
psql:postgistest.sql:580: ERROR:  could not find
function "summary" in file "C:/
pgsql75win/lib/libpostgis.dll"
