Since V6.3, its in the src/interfaces/jdbc directory. To build cd into
that directory, and type 'make' (or 'make examples' to build the driver
and the examples). You should then find the postgresql.jar file which you
can place into the CLASSPATH.

Also, as our driver is a type 4 JDBC driver, it will work on any platform
supporting the 1.1 JDK or later (I test it with 1.1.3 & 1.1.5)

ps: Don't forget to run the postmaster with the -i parameter...
