[CYGWIN] Updating postgres 7.4.5 to 8 via cygwin

Hi,

I was wondering whether someone can help me.   I already have postgres 7.4.5 running under cygwin on my web server, and I've looked into installing the native version of 8, but it looks like there is a bit of dumping/importing of database to be done.   I noticed that postgres 8 is available under cygwin, and it came up as an update.  If I install it through cygwin, is there any messing around with databases to be done?  Is that an easier option than installing the native version and moving from a cygwin version?

Thank you

Nick
