By default the Postgres versions that are shipped with Solaris are 
disabled (run "svcs postgresql" to verify).  So if you just want to use 
your own Postgres binary, you don't have to worry about changing the 
port as long as you don't enable the versions that come with Solaris.  
You are making conflicting statement about running both databases in 
parallel but at the same time want to replace your version with the 
binary that comes with Solaris. Perhaps you're thinking that the 
Postgres that comes with Solaris is always running by default which is 
not the case!
