What about a user settable WITH_PGSQL_VER equivalent of
DEFAULT_PGSQL_VER  like in MySQL case ?


And: I've set in my mail/dspam's Makefile:
......
  .if defined(WITH_POSTGRESQL)
  USE_PGSQL=      yes
+ WANT_PGSQL_VER= 99
+ DEFAULT_PGSQL_VER=      99
+ BROKEN_WITH_PGSQL=      74
.......

and it doesn't complain, just goes on and compiles with the install headers;
having this installed:
 # pkg_info -I postg\*
postgresql-7.4.6    The most advanced open-source database available anywhere
postgresql-docs-7.4.6 The PostgreSQL documentation set

And I don't understand it, it should bark on this else:
# And now we are checking if we can use it
.if exists(${PORTSDIR}/databases/postgresql${PGSQL_VER}-client)
......
.else
BROKEN=         "unknown PostgreSQL version: ${PGSQL_VER}"
