Just for the archives, in the end I managed to install
Typo3 3.8.1 including the DBAL extension, which should
make it possible to use postgres instead of mysql.
Installing DBAL was a pain, because it seems to be included
in Typo3 4.0, and was therefore removed from the typo3 extension
cvs on sourceforge. I ended up going through the changelog, and
checking out a previous version (From somtime in december).
Typo3 worked, but lots of extensions didn't, so in the end
we'll have to use mysql :-(
Maybe the upcoming 4.0 version will solve this...
