This is most interesting thing... I compiled Postgres95 1.05 on FreeBSD 
2.1.5 with virtually *no errors*, and now it's up and running (let me 
see... yes, it still runs).

Maybe you forgot to install newly compiled kernel?

Oh, yes, and as I see your postmaster tried to get a big chunk of shared 
memory and got choked. I'd suggest trying to increase maximum size of 
shared memory (it's an option during compile - I forgot the name).

Don't do this (especially if it hurts ;-). I tell you, it can be done - 
we may further elaborate on configurations/options/whatnot, but 
eventually it WILL work.

Andy,
