Seems outdated: 2002, PostgreSQL 7.2, ~1500 lines of code. (which I
don't really understand, I simply don't know TCL, sorry.)

Yeah, perl is better with me ;-)  Anyway, 2003 also isn't that
up-to-date either. ~770 lines of code, but that might very well be
sufficient in many cases.

And as David Fetter pointed out, it's dangerous to rely on such tools,
as they can never replace a change control process.

no, but it's good to double check your change control process with a
good diff tool.  the sqlmanager tool is pretty good but not perfect.
That being said, I think a hand crafted pl/pgsql script is probably
the way to go.
