Normalization tools for postgres?

Anyone have recommendations on tools/utilities or SQL approaches to  
quickly break apart a large imported flat file into normal forms,  
ideally 1NF or 2NF?

I noticed this tool for mySQL which captures what I am looking for:  
http://www.sqldbu.com/eng/sections/tips/normalize.html

Given the fields with data to be output into separate tables, it  
takes a csv and automatically generates a set of INSERT queries to  
build all the related tables with new a new primary key for the main  
table and serialized codes for each of the new tables to maintain  
relationships.

Perhaps a customized php script could accomplish the same thing for  
postgres?

Any suggestions would be helpful.
