I would like to get this nailed down and fixed.  As Scott pointed out, I think 
we are facing a rather big support problem ...

At this point, I don't consider it acceptable to drop Bacula support for 
either MySQL or PostgreSQL on RHEL3.  It is a bit of an old system, and we 
may not be able to support every thing such as bat, but I don't like the idea 
of dropping Bacula support.

Scott if you have time, could you send me the output that shows PostgreSQL 
failing on RHEL3?

Also, could you try running Bacula with the installed version of MySQL, but 
with batch insert mode turned off during the configure.  I would like to 
understand why it is failing.
