Ahh, yes. The stock standard postgresql 6.5.3 doesn't have it.
Incidentally, there are unofficial postgresql debs available for potato for
later versions of postgresql at
http://people.debian.org/~risko/postgresql-7.1.1-potato/ and
http://www.samfundet.no/~tfheen/debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/misc/
I've tried the second of the two (postgres 7.0.3), and works great, running
on several of our production servers here without a hiccup.
