No reason from my end to keep more than the most recent version
on papio.  Yes, I'd like the dumptxt to correspond with the
database files.  That way I don't have to keep track of whether
they are or not and don't have to get a _new_ version of the
foxpro db _along_ _with_ dumptxt output should there be subsequent
data updates.  (And don't have to run the conversion again.)

It's an excuse to go to postgres 8.1, which we'll have to do anyway.
If I don't change from that then the next papio upgrade we'll
be using the 'stock' db shipped with the OS.
