[otrs] Creating a new user agent (Postgres, Mac OSX)

Im still having a HELL of a time getting the built in perl to CPAN me up
some needed OTRS modules.

Just got approval for testing with a  userland perl (activeperl).  Should
have that done today and I will hopefully not get the same problem as you so
we can say you did something wrong :)

That would really stink if OTRS just didn't work in Leopard..
