* Still way old JDBC drivers in there.

* You're defining PGLIB in the bash profile.  PGLIB doesn't do anything.

* postgresql.init:

  Why do you need networking for postmaster?

  Using `pidof postmaster` is wrong.  There could be other postmasters
  running just fine.  Should use the lock file, or not care because the
  postmaster or pg_ctl can handle this just fine.

  Might want to implement the "reload" option.

* What happened to the contrib handling patch?

* What is going to happen to NLS?
