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]

All ports depending on postgresql shall use the USE_PGSQL=yes knob
defined in Mk/bsd.ports.mk. Bumping portrevisions where needed.

New port, containing all contrib stuff distributed with postgresql
From the README:
The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities,
and plug-in features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL
system, mainly because they address a limited audience or
are too experimental to be part of the main source tree.
This does not preclude their usefulness.
Each subdirectory contains a README file with information
about the module. Most items can be built with `gmake all'
and installed with `gmake install' in the usual fashion,
after you have run the `configure' script in the top-level
directory. Some directories supply new user-defined
functions, operators, or types. After you have installed
the files you need to register the new entities in the
database system by running the commands in the supplied
.sql file. For example,
$ psql -d dbname -f module.sql
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about
this procedure.
