Sounds like psql was built without libhistory.  If you compiled postgres
yourself, the odds are that the problem is you don't have the libhistory
devel RPM installed.  Install it, reconfigure and recompile postgres.

Not sure about this one.  The usual Access issue is that it doesn't
like tables without primary keys, but I don't see why there'd be
any change across postgres versions.  Any ideas out there?
