I'd suggest two things.
one: Get a better ERP... :) or at least one you can inject some

will be released moderately soon, and if you won't be going into
production directly, might be ready about the time you are.
for 3 months I ran a 400M$ manufacturing company's erp off of a
pre-beta 8.0 windows pg server converted from cobol using some hacked
out c++ middleware. I remember having to change how the middleware
handled transactions when Alvaro changed them to a checkpoint
mechanism. I also remember being relieved when I no longer had to
manually edit pg_config.h so nobody would notice they would notice
they were running a beta version of postgresql had one of the
technical people casually logged into psql. I scraped out almost
completely unscathed except for a nasty crash due to low stack
allocation of the compiler on windows.
the point of all this? get onto a recent version of postgresql, what
could possbily go wrong?
