There's also the Shore data manager.  While not a complete SQL database,
I've wondered if it could actually be spliced into PostgreSQL, since the

I can see Interbase, MySQL, and SAP DB as being three database that
would be worth researching.  I am willing to assist anyone who wants to
give it a try.  I have all the sources here myself.  I even have old
University Ingres, Mariposa, and Postgres 4.2.
