Great. Is that something we should commit to that file? If so, just
let me know exactly what and where.

Excellent, thanks, I'll try to find a Windows box to try them out. I see the
version name is now in the file name, +1. Maybe we could make the name
a little longer and indicate that the second half is the Perl version?

DBD-Pg-2.8.7-Perl5.10.ppd

And perhaps label things better so that it's clear that it's ordered by
Perl version on the page? I realize we might have to fight against the
limitations of pgfoundry.org on some of that. If so, let me know, I've got
access to that code as well. :)

Thanks for your work on this, it is greatly appreciated. We should think
about getting this into the ActiveState and stackbuilder repos as well.
