PostgreSQL on BeOS ?

Hello,

does anyone tried to compile PostgreSQL on BeOS?
I heard that a lot of GNU tools are available for BeOS and they work
fine.
Should PostgreSQL run on BeOS?

Best regards,

    The server portions will not work without a lot of hacking,
since BeOS does not provide mmap().  However, I have made a nasty
port of the client-side libraries, and am trying to get someone to
give me advice on how to do a clean port of them that can be submitted
back to the repository.
