Thanks, my postgres version was a typo, it's actually v-6.5.2 but your advice on the upgrade is greatly appreciated! ... and I fixed the problems: pg_connect() wouldn't run because of a pathing problem when I compiled PHP ("--with-pgsql=" was pointing to the wrong directory, duh.), the "frozen local.inc" aberration was a result of a strange "include_file=" path something like this - ".:/usr/local/lib/php" - evidently PHPLIB won't traverse to the second path iteration? Anyone know anything about this?
