Well, I think you're confusing source with binary package.  The source
files will / should compile on any platform with a reasonable build
environment, including solaris 9.  A binary package for solaris 9 is
another issue.  I'm not sure where you would get that.  But you should
be able to download postgresql-8.2.5.tar.gz and compile that on
solaris, assuming you've got a decent build environment.

The source can be found here:

http://ftp9.us.postgresql.org/pub/mirrors/postgresql/v8.2.5/postgresql-8.2.5.tar.gz

(that's just one of the mirrors.)

Then read the INSTALL instructions in the file and come back if you
need more help.
