Rebuilding, and have uploaded Aurora 1.0 and Fedora Core 1 RPMS for PostgreSQL
7.4-0.2PGDG. The same source RPM works for both, and works for Red Hat 8.0
(I'm building that one now; my RH8 machine is a creaky old Pentium 150).

To rebuild on Red Hat 6.2, executing this should work (but I don't have a 6.2
machine on which to try it....)
rpm --define 'build6x 1' --define 'plperl 0' --rebuild
postgresql-7.4-0.2PGDG.src.rpm

To rebuild on Red Hat 7.3:
rpmbuild --define 'build7x' --define 'plperl 0' --rebuild ....

To rebuild on Red Hat 8.0 and 9:
rpmbuild --define 'build89' --rebuild ....

To rebuild on Fedora Core
rpmbuild --rebuild ...

I fixed the initscript this time, I think, and made it more portable on the
build.
