 You will need an initdb to go from beta1 to beta3.  Sorry about that;
 we try to avoid forced initdb after beta cycle starts, but sometimes
 it's not possible.

 You might want to skip testing beta1 and just start with beta3, or even
 a current nightly snapshot.

Well, my problem was that a downgrade had to be made to the only Solaris8 
SPARC back to Solaris7, and postgres broke. So I recompiled it, in a new 
directory, and copied the data directory to the new postgres instaltion 
directory, but when I connect with pgaccess to and db, I see the postgres 
tables (like pg_aggregate, pg_group, pg_scripts, pg_trigger, etc). Did I do 
something wrong? Any way to fix it?

 I'm compiling beta 1 of 7.1 and I have a par of questions.

 analyze.c: In function `transformInsertStmt':

Fixed in current sources.  (I think there is still one unused-var
complaint left in the XLOG code; I've been waiting on Vadim to do
something about it, because it looks like there is code still to be
written there.)

Just commented out for now.
