We haven't discussed it before, but I think we can't put the RPM among
PGDG RPMs. The main reason is that this is not a piece of software that's
included within that release of PostgreSQL. Also, this compat RPM is not
needed if you don't have a software that needs that RPM.

As I wrote above, it does not seem possible.
Also remember that this will be probably 'solved' in RHEL 5 (and FC 5), so
merging compat with main libs package is not a good idea.

(a) No, /proc/{pid}/* is owned by the process
(b) /proc/{pid}/oom_adj exists ?
(c) No, from the source: (not docbooked, we don't want this one
