The file system is not the problem -- it's shared memory that's an issue
for Postgres.
There is a "distributed lock manager" (by Redhat I think) that could be
the base for implementing something vaguely cluster-y, but there are lots
of roadblocks to it. I assume Slony-II will be here way earlier, making
it all moot.
