Just noticed that doc/FAQ_Linux and doc/FAQ_Irix have been
zero-length files in the CVS repository since the end of August.
They're also that way in the 6.4 distribution tarball.

There are still copies on the website (at the URLs mentioned in
doc/FAQ), but I dunno where those are stored physically or how
up-to-date they are.

BTW, the reason I noticed this is that I'm going to try to put together
a FAQ for HPUX installation of Postgres.  Is it sufficient to check an
ASCII file into the doc directory, or is there other stuff I should do?

Not sure what happened to the ones in the CVS repository, but they
apparently disappeared around the 29th of August...

The WWW versions are in ~pgsql/ftp/www/html/..

Update INSTALL, etc. for release 6.4.  Update pgaccess to 0.88.

Hey Bruce! Can you revert the files to the previous versions? Somehow
they were zeroed on one of your mega-commits...
