Are you looking for PostgreSQL rebrands or POSTGRES (a la Berkely) re-brands?  
AIUI Illustra is the latter but not the former.

Powergres is/was offered by SRA as a commercial, threaded windows version of 
PostgreSQL.  Also NuSphere/Peerdirect released a windows version of 
PostgreSQL that iirc was called UltraSQL.  There was also "Pervasive 
Postgres" which was recently offered by Pervasive.  I don't recall if Great 
Bridge had such a repackaging, but someone else could probably chime in on 
that. HTH.
