Edwin Groothuis 16d1da8428 New port: postgresql-contrib
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.

This is the port for all stuff that comes in the contrib subtree of
the postgresql distribution. 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. 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
The .sql files are installed into /usr/local/share/postgresql/contrib
For more information, please see
/usr/local/share/doc/postgresql/contrib/README*
This software is part of the standard PostgreSQL distribution.
