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]
