Bump portrevision due to upgrade of devel/gettext.

The affected ports are the ones with gettext as a run-dependency
according to ports/INDEX-7 (5007 of them) and the ones with USE_GETTEXT
in Makefile (29 of them).

- Set X11BASE to ${LOCALBASE} for recent ${OSVERSION}.
- Bump PORTREVISION for ports intalling files in ${X11BASE}.

Fix security alert using a patch from PostgreSQL's CVS repository:

  Prevent overrunning a heap-allocated buffer if more than 1024
  parameters to a refcursor declaration are specified. This is a
  minimally-invasive fix for the buffer overrun.

Define LATEST_LINK to avoid package name clashes between the different
branches of PostgreSQL. [1] (Since postgresql-tcltk is hardwired to
branch 7.4, keep its LATEST_LINK to a generic value.)

Set UNIQUENAME and let it be the same for server & client, so each
branch's ports will share the same options file. This adds some no-op
knobs to the -client port, but IMO it is better this way.

Add space inside paranthesis in OSVERSION conditional to work around

In order to address a potential security hole recently identified with
the "LOAD" option, the PostgreSQL Global Development Group is
announcing the release of new versions of PostgreSQL.

Update to 7.3.9, 7.4.7 & 8.0.1.

Take the opportunity to reset PORTREVISION of slave ports.

Back out name change of startup script. The new script uses rc.subr(8),
and as such also uses rcorder(8). But, rcorder does not exist in FreeBSD
4.x. Hence rename the script it back to the top of the directory
list. [1]

The periodic script should of course be executable. [2]

Bump portrevision.

Split the postgresql ports into a server and a client part.

The tcltk interface has been removed from the main distribution, so
fixate the version number to the latest released version, 7.4.6.

Use another way for PortgreSQL slave ports (make without -C),
because much more people still use old versions of make.

Remove unneeded RUN_DEPENDS.

Volker mentioned an install with a dependency "postgres" fails if
postgresql is installed with -DWITHOUT_SERVER, though it shouldn't,
and thus suggested a depend-change to "psql", which is also present
for the client-only-install.

The maintainer then submitted the patch which completely removes the
dependency as it "is actually not needed".  I personally am in favor
of the first solution, but Palle is the maintainer.

Remove PORTVERSION (like other postgresql subports in ports/36980), so that
it will compile.

This is a port of the Tcl/Tk stuff in the postgresql-7.2   distribution. It
includes pgtclsh, pgtksh and also the infamous   pgaccess GUI.
