Well, you missed all the fun:

http://www.garfieldtech.com/blog/database-tng-lands

There's a lot of follow-up work to do now.  In particular, we could use help 
on a couple Postgres-related issues:

http://drupal.org/node/256001
http://drupal.org/node/257006

Your input would be appreciated.

I need to understand why you are using these "unsigned" types in the
first place. However I would certainly use a check constraint over a
domain if the only purpose of the domain is the check constraint.

Frankly, I have no idea.  I've never worked with Postgres, in Drupal or otherwise.  Best place to ask is probably on that issue, and see if anyone responds.

My point was, PostgreSQL doesn't have unsigned types. I was curious
about the requirement from Drupal. I can ask on the ticket I guess.
