Nope...pgaccess is found at www.flex.ro/pgaccess(?) ... we have
it included, also, as part of our src/bin directory, but, for the release,
tha only contains the newest version *at the time of* release...
We update the CVSup server at www.postgresql.org periodically to
keep up with Constantin's work, but it doesn't get udpated in the
'release' distribution
