AFAIK, PostgreSQL is not explicitly SMP-aware, but given that a separate
backend server (postmaster) is started for each database connection, it will
take advantage of SMP automatically when there is more than one simultaneous
database connection.

I strongly doubt this is SMP-related. I've been using PostgreSQL (7.0.3
recompiled for Debian potato) on several SMP machines without any unexpected
behaviour whatsoever.
