Cool but CVS may not be a good idea unless you are prepared to have a
broken DB server. There are a lot of changes going into the backend in
preparation for PostgreSQL v6.4. Two major backend patches today alone.
If you are going to be using CVS I'd suggest subscribing to

So was your original message just a query on the validity of the old
test or a request to write new ones. I'd be willing to help with the
later.
