Thanks Dan and Kern for your answers.

AFAIK Postgres does not run in a jail (where I'm running the tests), 
unless you set up your machine in such a way that the whole purpose of 
jails is defeated, so this is a no-go.

I'd be interested in testing Postgres, since all my setups are based on 
this; however, I'll choose sqlite over MySQL if I have to (i.e. if the 
sed you suggest don't work).



  bye & Thanks
