You can also probably hack something to close all connections to the
specific DB, using ps(1) and perl or sh scripting. Then you can drop
the database. Maybe you should set pg_database.datallowcon to false on
the database you want to drop before starting to close connections, so
it doesn't accept future connections before you can do the DROP
DATABASE.
