I'd be interested to hear what other have to say, but I haven't any 
significant problems in the two MySQL sites that I've run with recent Trac 
1.0.x releases. In most cases I think users will be okay if they run with 
the recommended storage engine, charset and collation. My understanding is 
that the options will just be expanded with #12363.

The number of PostgreSQL issues (1) is comparable to the number of MySQL 
issues (2). The only major issue I've run into is #12390; it can be worked 
around and is probably rarely encountered.

I would rather run PostgreSQL, but that's just a personal preference and 
matter of familiarity.
