How to create a join using a postgis data table?

[Carola Jesch]

Hi list, hi Steve,
 
I have been trying to create a join using a postgis data table. 
Looking at the source code (mapserver 4.6.1) showed that this seems not to
be implemented. (4.8.0 beta 2 as well)
 
Please say that I am wrong ...I really need this functionality.
Are there any workarounds?
 
BTW, specifying a wrong dbf path in a multiple DBase join lets the mapserver
crash. (Windows XP, Mapserver version 4.6.1) 
Here is the patch fixing the issue:

File: mapjoin.c

< msDBFClose(joininfo->hDBF);
---
> if(joininfo->hDBF) msDBFClose(joininfo->hDBF);
