include jdbc4 driver / upgrade to 8.3-604

[H.-Dirk Schmitt]

Binary package hint: libpgjava

The default jJVM for intrepid/jaunty is a 1.6 JVM.

The JDBC Driver webpage of postgress (see http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html) has the following statement:

This is the current version of the driver. Unless you have unusual requirements (running old applications or JVMs), this is the driver you should be using. It supports Postgresql 7.2 or newer and requires a 1.4 or newer JVM. It contains support for SSL and the javax.sql package. It comes in two flavors, JDBC3 and JDBC4. If you are using the 1.6 JVM, then you should use the JDBC4 version.

For postgres 8.03 is since summer the newer build 605 available.
