Thanks, I'll have to wait for the port of P8.0.0 rc4 to cygwin as the
current cygwin port of pg_dump is 8.0.0 B2 and does not work correctly for
reason of the error 'column "nsptablespace" does not exist' which is fixed
in later pg_dump versions.

Still intrigued as to why the native ports don't work though.

Cygwin has a different handling of console input/output than the windows
command prompt. I've seen similar weird errors with other native windows
tools on the cygwin shell.
