Did you compile postgresql on 3.0 or is it a 2.2.* binary?
If the latter, do you have the appropriate lib directory
configured in ldconfig_paths_aout in /etc/rc.conf?
I haven't had any problems with it compiled on 3.0.

The port depends on some broken modules that are not strictly
required.  Download the module, build and install by hand and it
works okay.

Again, I installed by hand and it works fine.
