And if you want to be really picky number 4 is wrong as well:
root# su - postgres -c "make check"
I know that is really picky but as someone who manages the number of
PostgreSQL systems that I do, I might have picked that one. Number 2 is
also confusing because am I compiling ALL of PostgreSQL? I just did a
check and it took 63 megs just to unpack it, let alone compile it.
