Would it be easier to release the program you did to do
this conversion?
I use this pretty short (274 line) C program: http://www.forensiclogic.com/tmp/tgr2sql.c
to convert the raw tiger files
from http://www.census.gov/geo/www/tiger/index.html
into SQL statements that can be loaded by postgresql.
The #define SQL line controls if it makes data
with INSERT statements or for COPY statements.
