This is actually done for quite a while now. If openssl is installed
(recommended by postgresql-common), you get:

/var/lib/postgresql/8.0/main/:
  server.crt -> /etc/postgresql-common/postgresql.crt
  server.key -> /etc/postgresql-common/postgresql.pem

/etc/postgresql-common/:
  postgresql.crt
  postgresql.pem

Both the certificate and the links are created automatically. If
openssl is not installed, then the certificates are not created (of
course). If the certificates aren't present, the symlinks are not
created and ssl is disabled.

So what's the status on your system? Do you have openssl? Which
files/links exist in your system?

Thanks,

Martin
