I intend to use Aubit4GL solely with PostgreSQL, although there is a slight
possibility that I might use SLQLite for certain KVT type stuff.

However, it is in the back of my mind that Aubit4GL might be officially ported
to FreeBSD and in that case there is a possibility that someone might want to
use mysql.  I do not see an option for mariadb, otherwise I would include that
as well.

But I can live without either unless and until I try to port to FreeBSD.

I will run make, see what happens, and report back.
