Also removed "useless +'s" on _DEPENDS, at xsa@ request.
As this port has no currently listed maintainer, I had ok's from
xsa@ and Aleksander Piotrowski.
Changes in the package layout means that there is now a -client and
-server subpackage, and users no longer need to decide which, as
the -server depends on the -client, just like the sane cases in
mysql and openldap.
Other changes include:
* Removal of the tcl FLAVOR until someone with more tcl/tk knowledge
can make it work correctly.
* The INSTALL-server script now created a _postgresql user and group
if they don't already exist, and also a default database in
/var/postgresql if that directory also doesn't exist.
* The port is marked for NO_SHARED_ARCHS as the -server subpackage
needs shared lib support to build.
* The port will build with spinlocks disabled on hppa until someone
can check and test this problem more closely.
Built and checked on i386, sparc64, amd64, macppc (waiting for regress
test feedback).
Dependent packages will be updated after this commit, shortly.

This OCaml library provides an interface to PostgreSQL (tested with
versions 7.0.2, 7.1.3 and 7.4.1), an efficient and reliable, open
source, relational database.
Almost all functionality available through the C-API (libpq) is
replicated in a type-safe way. This library uses objects for
representing database connections and results of queries.
When searching through large amounts of data, it is often the case that a
result set is returned that is larger than we want to display on one page. This
results in wanting to page through various pages of data. The maths behind this
is unfortunately fiddly, hence this module.
The main concept is that you pass in the number of total entries, the number of
entries per page, and the current page number. You can then call methods to
find out how many pages of information there are, and what number the first and
last entries on the current page really are.
