I have quick comments:
1) I discussed /etc problem with Peter Eisentraut and conclusion is that
--syconfigdir should be used to correct setup a path. You already do
it, but this path contains version independent configuration. The
psqlrc.sample file is usually store in .../share/ directory.
By my opinion best solution is to set --sysconfigdir=/etc and keep
psqlrc.sample in current directory /usr/postgres/8.3/etc. We could
change psqlrc.sample to another location during 8.4 integration, but do
it now it seem to me as too big effort with zero benefit.
By the way not only Solaris has this issue. I checked SUSE and it has
similar problem.
2) I'm still no happy with Makefile.sfw
35 # these need to be synced manually with VERSION in METADATA
36 PGMAJVER= 8.3
37 PGMINVER= $(COMPONENT_VERSION:sh)
38 PGPREFIX= /usr/postgres/$(PGMAJVER)
39 PGDATAPREFIX= /var/postgres/$(PGMAJVER)
Try somethink like: `echo "${PGMINVER}" | cut -d. -f-2`
Its only not full check.

hmmm good question. I use wrapper which do that. Try make install or cd
usr/src/pkgdefs; make

I could be, but I'm will be busy until end of October. :(
