Well, I picked up this from our sample in src/tools/editors and put it 
in my emacs init file:
   (defun pgsql-sgml-mode ()     "SGML mode adjusted for PostgreSQL project"     (interactive)     (sgml-mode)
     (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)     (setq sgml-basic-offset 1)   )
   (setq auto-mode-alist     (cons '("\\(postgres\\|pgsql\\).*\\.sgml\\'" . pgsql-sgml-mode)
auto-mode-alist))


It seems to work.

cheers
