IMHO it's partly a documentation problem, and partly a matter of people
not having looked at recent versions. A few years back it did take some
know-how to get Postgres installed.
I think the install-procedure docs in 7.0 are markedly better than they
were before, but they could still use further improvement.
Your work on configure/build/install scripts will help too of course ;-)
