After spending a couple hours searching the site, I've determined that the old
Perl Pg module is obsolete. I franticly "upgraded" the new server to 7.2.1
and all the perl stuff works again. Is there a version of the Pg module that
will work with 7.4.x, or do I have to learn yet another interface and rewrite
a ton of code? I'd RTFM if I could find it...

gborg CVS has a pgperl with major enhancements. As soon as I get the
test script to pass, I will release a new version.

If you are referring to DBD::Pg, recent versions should work just fine
with version 7.4 of the server. Please be specific in what is going wrong,
as well as letting us know what versions of DBD::Pg, PostgreSQL, DBI,
and Perl you are using. Running "make test" for DBD::Pg will show you all
this automatically, and is a recommended practice anyway.
