you could create the tables using a template database, in which case
they would be created when you create a new database using that template
(look at "createdb -T" to see how this works). this may not be what
you're looking for because they wouldn't be shared across databases,
they would just be copied into the new database when it was created. i
don't think there's a way to have shared access to those tables.
