Hah!
$ ./psql template1
Welcome to psql, the PostgreSQL interactive query shell.
(Please type \copyright to see the distribution terms of PostgreSQL.)
PostgreSQL 6.5.2 on i586-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by egcs
Type \h for help with SQL commands, \? for help on internal slash commands, \q to quit, \g or terminate with
semicolonto execute query.
template1=> \copyright
memory clobbered before allocated blockAborted (core dumped)
Oops! :)
Okay, I guess the motivation behind this was the question "Where is that

GPL too often.
Anyway, I guess I'll let the balance of the suggestions apply.
