are savepoints (within transactions), point-in-time recovery and
tablespaces. Check out the release notes and the shiny new
PostgreSQL.org website at:

The port uses the new postgresql ports' layout and is split into a
server and a client part. The 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 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 :)
