This is a really small fix:
- When compiling postgresql-jdbc, the compilation process presents a
bad path to the installed jar-file.

Many bugfixes and cosmetic changes
Changes by Scrappy and me
My additional changes:
- had to link libpgtcl.so with the crypt library to get rid of the
pgaccess error message, that crypt is missing
- had to add -i option in the startup script, so that pgaccess is
able to connect to the postmaster process
- removed all unnecessary patches
- updated PLIST
Thanks to the postgresql developement team, who did a great job to
simplify the postgresql port, by applying the patches and making
the autoconf mechanism more consistent.

Please note: when performing a migration to 6.2 and you have an existing db,
then you have to use the *new* pg_dumpall script that comes with this new
postgresql release. The INSTALL file points this out explicitely !!!
Changes:
- startup script resides in FILESDIR
- renamed it to be in sync with INSTALL file from sources
- always install this startup script over an existing, because
of the nature of the rc.d directory I can't install it
to pgsql.sh-dist, if a pgsql.sh is already presend ...
- portlint detected trailing whitespace, usage of perl with absolute
path, usage of echo instead of ECHO and plenty things of this kind
- post installation notes updated, mentioned the mailing list
- copies the html pages as well to the share/doc directory (new manual dir)
- had to update PLIST
- shortened DESCR file, to match the 24 lines
- added post build target, that reminds the admin how to proceed when
already having a database -> INSTALL file describes migration
- updated manpages
