You still have to set up your system, add appropriate permissions to the
account under which ipc-daemon2 will run, install ipc-daemon2 as a
service, etc. See the README.
But yes, now you can just point and click to download and unpack (I
won't call it "installing") cygipc.

I think he said that he would continue to build postgresql against
cygipc until cygipc's *replacement*, cygserver, went "gold" --
regardless of whether cygipc was distributed via gatech.edu or via the
"normal" cygwin mirrors.
So, yes, postgresql still needs cygipc -- only now, it's easier to obtain.
