I think tedia2sql is the best of the breed for dia 2 sql transformations
you can find it from:
http://tedia2sql.tigris.org/

I've used over a year now and I could no longer do without it.

Postgresql_autodoc is a nice try, I apologize if it has taken a huge
leap since I last took a peek at it but imho it is(was) unusable for
anything more than a few tables when doing diagrams. But it has been
really good for getting html-table-presentations for relations.

I've also looked The Kompanys DA and found it lacking diagrams when
reverse engineering a database but a lot better than anything else I've
tried for postgres on that purpose.

My solution is to keep the diagrams updated so that I don't need reverse
engineering. ;)
