compiling Xpath functions in PostgreSQL 8.3.3

Hi,

I was trying to install postgreSQL with XML data type support. My OS is
ubuntu , kernel 2.6.15.. PostgresSQL version is 8.3.3 .I have libxml2 and
libxslt installed. I configured using
./configure --with-libxml --with-libxslt
configure went fine..
'make all' went fine
'make install' went fine.

when i check the functions available inside PostgreSQL using '\df x*' , I
can only see xpath() function that is related to xpath. I was able to use
xpath() function properly. However,No other functions like xpath_bool() ,are
available.

When i run ' \i /usr/local/pgsql/share/pgxml.sql' in postgre , I get error
saying file or directory named 'MODULE_PATHNAME' doesn't exist. How to get
this MODULE_PATHNAME exist?.

what is the easiest way to get the XML functioanlity (mainly xpath part like
xpath_bool etc..) in PostgreSQL in Linux. I mean which linux flavours, or
postgreSQl versions are recommendable. I couldn't find the documentation
online for getting XML working in postgreSQL (except that configure with
libxml ).

THanks in Advance
SagAr.
