>Description:
The function "elog" has been removed from pg-7.4, so contrib functions
must be updated when updating the postgres binary.
This patch adds a note about that.
Also, it's been a while since the postgresql layout shift,
no reason to inform about it anymore.

For using perl5, tcl & ruby as procedural languages.

+ Lots of contributed utilities, postgresql functions and
+ datatypes. There you find autovacuum, pgcrypto and many other cool

etc etc...
-Note that many files have moved around compared to previous versions
-of PostgreSQL. For example, plpgsql.so and all other language modules
-are now in /usr/local/lib/postgresql.
+For procedural languages and postgresql functions, please note that
+you might have to update them when updating the server. For example,
+the "elog" method disappeared in postgresql-7.4, so postgresql-contrib
+must be updated along with the server.
If you have many tables and many clients running, consider raising
kern.maxfiles using sysctl(8), or reconfigure your kernel
