Postgres may be reasonably well known synonym for readers
on these mailinglists.

But to the rest of the world - including those people who just
read the postgreSQL web site and documentation, I think
postgre is a far more frequently assumed synonym.

This documentation proposal of Bruce's is the first time
I see anything visible that might give people hints that
Postgres is preferred over Postgre.
