In ashander/RAMlegacyr: R interface for RAM Legacy database

install notes:

Circa 2011: Following doesn't work on several installs, fails with problem finding libpq-fe.h

r install.packages('RPostgreSQL', type='source', configure.args="--with-pgsql-libraries=/opt/local/lib/postgresql83/ --with-pgsql-includes=/opt/local/include/postgresql83/")

for install from mac ports, install.packages('RPostgreSQL') worked, because it found pg_config... /opt/local/lib/postgresql83/bin/pg_config with PATH set properly install works
