Not a direct answer.  I use PG on AMD64 Gentoo.  I wanted to use 8.0
before Gentoo incorporated it (don't know if they have yet or not.)  So
I downloaded the source and compiled it myself.  This is very easy to
do, as PG has very few dependencies.  So you might want to consider that
alternative.  You'll lose Gentoo's management of the PG installation,
but I don't find that a major issue.
