Except that pgpool-II-3.3.3 is a stable release version, and not what
would normally be considered a 'development' version.   In principle for
anyone wanting to install pgpool-II for the first time the choice should
be to use version 3.3.3.  I think there's a 3.4 branch that would
qualify for pgpool-II-devel if anyone wanted to write that port.  Also,
the established name does seem to be 'pgpool-II' despite the 'II' being
an ersatz version number.

However, this is orthogonal to getting 3.3.3 into the tree in the first
place.  Why don't we proceed with adding a databases/pgpool-II-33 port
now, and deal with indicating which one is the default and whether some
of the older versions should be removed as a separate item later?

	Cheers,

	Matthew
