Then you should better use the snapshots. There are now already fixes in
the 2.1.1 snapshot for postgres, which won't make it in 2.0.4.

The rc's were only meant to test the installation-procedures on all
different platforms. And maybe to see if there were any show-stoppers.

But you can not expect that bugs found in rc2 are fixed in rc3. There
were only two weeks between those releases.

That's why it's more usefull for the developers if people use the
snapshots. Bugs like the sqldb-bug should already be found before we
start building release candidates.
