Hello,

the initial issues with service installation failure were fixed some time ago
(comment #14).
Marking fixed before this bug gets recycled again.

fixme:advapi:CreateRestrictedToken (0xbc, 0x1, 2, 0x81f45c, 0, (nil), 0, (nil),
0x81f44c): stub
Failed to create restricted token: 120
pg_ctl: could not start server: exit code was 5

Alas we are at a fixme. Can anything be done with this?

I have run the various utilities such as psql and pgadmin3 under wine and have
been able to connect the a linux postgresql server with full functionality so
it is only the server part of postgresql that is broken

In summary it would be possible to install and run postgresql in wine by using
a "winetricks" approach given that CreateRestrictedToken can be fixed. It will
not be possible to use the distributed msi installer for postgresql because it
uses initdb to set up and start the server. The installer could be changed
(it's available from cvs) to implement the workaround but in truth a simple
script and the binary sources would suffice.
