Problems with Project 2000 and 7.1.2

I have a Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 server running 7.1.2, and an NT 4.0sp5
client running a clean install of Microsoft Project 2000 while logged
in as Administrator. I've managed to get the ODBC stuff functional,
but Project crashes while saving my first trivial project (only 1
task, no other resources or entries).

One odd thing I've noted versus the instructions given at
http://techdocs.postgresql.org/source.php#fmsproject -- Project
appears to be unhappy if the MSP_PROJECTS table exists already. The
instructions indicated that the database should be seeded with that
(and other) tables beforehand.

So, any ideas on where I should go from there? Things to look for in
the SQL logs, etc.?
