I've been running Postgres on a Solaris 2.8 box for a long time.  Just upgraded to 
7.0.3 and noticed the reappearance of a bug that I've seen before: psql segfaults on 
startup.

The problem is clearly and unmistakeably related to readline (psql -n works like a 
charm).  I've tried mucking around with the psql sources as well as recompiling 
readline (with and without curses) and recompiling ncurses (with and without the 
termcap fallback).  It just doesn't like any of this.

I would be happy to send a core file to anyone who's interested.

Thanks,

Steve
