Ok for PostgreSQL, but since you are starting a new project better to use
PHP 5.

Well, if we're talking database upgrades, PostgreSQL 8.x has been out for
over two years. It includes full text indexing via the TSearch2 module.
(TSearch2 was previously available as an add-on for 7.4.x, but the newer
versions work better.)

And from 8.1 onwards, OIDs are disabled by default Erwin! ;-)
