installed, the patched gram.y file would not be used and the security
patch would be a no-op. Also, I've had reports of compilation errors
related to bison.
Since checking for the correct version of bison is hard and error
prone, I'm doing what the postgresql distribution does - patching the
yacc:ed .c file to get rid of the building dependency.
Bumping portrevision of -server.

Prevent overrunning a heap-allocated buffer if more than 1024
parameters to a refcursor declaration are specified. This is a
minimally-invasive fix for the buffer overrun.
Define LATEST_LINK to avoid package name clashes between the different
branches of PostgreSQL. [1] (Since postgresql-tcltk is hardwired to
branch 7.4, keep its LATEST_LINK to a generic value.)
Set UNIQUENAME and let it be the same for server & client, so each
branch's ports will share the same options file. This adds some no-op
knobs to the -client port, but IMO it is better this way.
Add space inside paranthesis in OSVERSION conditional to work around
(ancient) make bug. [2]
Remove the Rendez-Vouz knob for 8.0 since I can't find the software
needed to even compile it on FreeBSD.
Bump portrevision (for -server only).

the "LOAD" option, the PostgreSQL Global Development Group is
announcing the release of new versions of PostgreSQL.
Update to 7.3.9, 7.4.7 & 8.0.1.
Take the opportunity to reset PORTREVISION of slave ports.
Back out name change of startup script. The new script uses rc.subr(8),
and as such also uses rcorder(8). But, rcorder does not exist in FreeBSD
4.x. Hence rename the script it back to the top of the directory
list. [1]
The periodic script should of course be executable. [2]

following knobs can be used by ports depending on PostgreSQL:
# USE_PGSQL - Add PostgreSQL client dependency.
# If no version is given (by the maintainer via the port or
# by the user via defined variable), try to find the
# currently installed version. Fall back to default if
# necessary (PostgreSQL-7.4 = 74).
# DEFAULT_PGSQL_VER
# - PostgreSQL default version. Can be overridden within a port.
# Default: 74.
# WANT_PGSQL_VER
# - Maintainer can set an arbitrary version of PostgreSQL by
# using it.
# BROKEN_WITH_PGSQL
# - This variable can be defined if the ports doesn't support
# one or more versions of PostgreSQL.
Note that a periodic script is installed that will, by default, vacuum
all databases nightly. You may want to tweak the settings, see the
script at ${LOCALBASE}/etc/periodic/daily/502.pgsql
To run PostgreSQL at boot time, set postgresql_enable=yes in /etc/rc.conf.

Note that none of these ports are (yet) hooked into the tree,
and will not compile unless you set a specific environmental
variable. This should be warning enough to leave well alone
for now :)

The following buffer overruns have been identified and
addressed [in 7.2.2]:
* in handling long datetime input
* in repeat()
* in lpad() and rpad() with multibyte
* in SET TIME ZONE and TZ env var
* The compiler in -CURRENT now complains if you precede -I/usr/include
with -I... . The same applies to -I/usr/lib .
* The distribution's configure file treats the compiler's unexpected
warning message as a failure and errors out.

- switch devel/gettext (0.11.1) on, installing full package
- flip devel/gettext-old (0.10.35) to installing only static binaries
with a "-old" suffix -- gettext-old will have its deorbit burn
sequence initiated just after 4.6-RELEASE
- fix up ports for the new world order
