Twas the day before Christmas &c &c ...

Postgres seems to have improved radically since I last used it. Back in the 6.x days it had a knack for blowing up, usually at inconvenient times like Friday nights just as we were about to leave for the pub. Today, though, It's tolerably fast, it has manual pages, and its UncommonSQL bindings actually work out of the box. Admittedly UncommonSQL doesn't itself work out of the box with SBCL, but the necessary patches are fairly obvious and will be going back to OnshoreD as soon as I'm Back.
