ah, yer right, the one in the pg 9.2 repo is 2.3.x, and indeed, pgloader
v2 was python.

I've spent all day trying to build the lisp code on centos 6 with a lot
of frustration. last time I even sniffed around the edges of lisp was
in the 1970s. I've successfully built sbcl 1.3, and it passes its self
test. building pgloader, I'm currently stuck at...

and have no idea how to proceed. btw, `make` processes that go and
download huge chunks of code from 3rd party sites scare the bejeezzus
out of me.

maybe I'll dig out the v2 python code and try it. it should be a lot
easier to deploy in our overseas manufacturing production data centers,
anyways.
