I think the answer is no, but can anyone tell me if postgresql supports
the older (pre sql-92?) style outer join syntax, eg:

SELECT *
FROM a,b
WHERE a.pk *= b.fk

It doesn't appear to support that exact syntax, which suggests it
doesn't know what I'm talking about, but maybe there's a system option
to turn it on???

Thanks

James
