Frank might not have worked on the OGR postgis data source in a while.

Sounds like you got it mostly done using this path (TAB -(OGR)-> Shape
-(shp2pgsql)-> PostGIS). Check your table to see if the geometries are
actually there, then start debugging the mapserver problem. It is not a
data conversion problem, and mapserver can definately render
multipolygon geometries, I guarantee it.
