I downloaded, compiled and installed with no problem and a RedHat 6.0/x86
machine. One thing I noticed is that the PG_SUBVERSION string is still
reporting 1. I was confused for a minute when the program reported itself
as 6.5.1. I thought the installation failed or something like that. I
checked postgresql-6.5.3/src/include/version.h.in and sure enough, it's
defined a 6.5.1 If this is intentional, I'll slap myself for you.
