I run BSD, and I believe config files should sit in /etc if the files are not
many. We can even go with one config file, such as postgres.conf which will
include the paths to other files - that can sit anywhere - in /etc/pgsql for
example or in /usr/local/pgsql/etc.
But, let's not start religious wars whether the System V way is better than
BSD's :-)
