Michael,

I is great to hear that you plan to continue working on this.  I look
forward to your contribution.  I have some additional comments below.

OK, I wasn't very explicit in my response.  Here is an example:

if (Driver.logDebug) Driver.debug("your debug message here");

It is a static variable named logDebug and not a method named isDebug().
 Debug output can be enabled by adding ?loglevel=2 to the jdbc URL(eg.
jdbc:postgresql://localhost:5432/pg?loglevel=2)  (or you can use
loglevel=1 but that only prints out Info messages of which there
currently is only one - the driver version).  This information hasn't
yet made it into the documentation, but it will before 7.3 is released.

I am not really sure about these test failures.

There are multiple ways this could be done.  I don't mean to suggest any
one is prefered at this point, but I believe this should be done.  Doing
it later in the process seems very reasonable.
