As you might also want to use git for developing with postgres its

As I use msysgit my usual way of dealing with flex and bison
dependencies is putting "$ENV{PATH}=$ENV{PATH} . ';C:\Program Files
(x86)\Git\bin';" into my buildenv.pl

Good thought. I hadn't realized msysgit bundled flex and bison - that's really handy. I generally use git from a `vsvars' cmd.exe shell not bash simply because some tools don't play well with bash, and I only have git on the PATH so I didn't realize flex was bundled. Handy!

I wonder if the docs should be recommending using msys's flex and bison (via msysgit or mingw) rather than GnuWin32? Pointing to a matching m4, flex and bison that're kept up to date and easy to install might be a good thing.
