Hoookay. I'm currently negotiating with IX Webhosting to upgrade their prehistoric software. Fellows, consider this a word of warning that, if they don't upgrade, anyone wanting to use this host will be stuck with PostgreSQL 7.1.3. If they do upgrade, I'll happily revoke this warning. Anyway, thanks for the heads-up.

What disaster do you foresee? Is that version unstable?

Yes. There are known, unfixed bugs, and architectural problems that cannot be fixed.
