I will slightly change the behaviour of the PostgreSQL port when
installing the server package.  The database administrator username will
be postgres, as recommended by the PostgreSQL developers.  The uid under
which the software is installed will not change.

The initial database that is created using initdb when the package is
installed will now prompt for a password for the DBA user.  Until now we
simply trusted every user connecting from localhost.

These changes are necessary to prevent users from inadvertently exposing
their databases.
