Two problems with the the postgresql 6.2 port on FreeBSD 2.2.2
(with a slightly newer kernel)

1) The rc.d script doesn't work...the -D argument is ignored.
   Try changing the data location, it has no effect.  If I echo a
   commend line to su, it works fine:

   if [ -x /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster ]; then
	echo -n ' pgsql'
	echo '/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -S -D/home/pgsql/data -o -F' | su pgsql
   fi

   (The 6.1 port had the same problem.)

2) When loading my dumped data, my system crashes reliably.  
   The only evidence I have at the moment is:

   Oct  4 11:16:44 fallout /kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait
      buffer: device: 132105, blkno: 12568, size: 20480

I'm sorry I personally don't have time to invesgigate this (I'm
just going back t 6.1) but thought you might like to know.
I can, however, make the offending data available (about 47MB
uncompressed).
