I'm a postgres user and i know your generalising here, but postgres has supported transactions for some time, and foreign keys. I also used to work in one of the major 4 banks in australia, and altho' i wasnt privy to all the purchasing details, i believe one of the major reasons oracle was chosen, (and infact most business critical software and hardware), is support from vendors and direct access to hardcore mofo's that know what to do when "once in a decade" bugs are found.
as others have mentioned postgres replication sucks, but other than that, my experience is that postgres is a more than capable database for the enterprise.
i'm an expat aussie livinging in NL. whenever someone asks me about that i always reply "Australians DONT drink fosters". last time i had one was at teh olympics in 2k, i drank 1/2, no, forced 1/2 down then threw the rest away.
