I've encountered transaction wraparound problems in a long-running

do need to understand the problem and get a fix into our product as
quickly as possible.

If you don't mind an intermediate step you could use Pg2xbase
http://www.klaban.torun.pl/prog/pg2xbase/
This program takes dbf files and inputs them into Postgres. It has an option
for lower casing field names. You can specify the table name when you do the
conversion.

I think it is. There are also functions that will tell you what the
sequence for a given field in a given table is (might also be new in
8.1, but you could probably recreate them yourself).
Also, in 8.2 you'll be able to do INSERT ... RETURNING, which can
return the id directly back to you.
