PostgreSQL & Freecoins

Once again I'm here to ask a question for freecoins, the palm record 
keeping software (http://freecoins.sourceforge.net)...
Someone believed that gnucash supported a SQL backend instead of using 
an XML file.  Is that true?  The reason is that the author and lead 
developer of freecoins would like to see it connected with a SQL db as a 
generic conduit.  And then have gnucash connect to the same db.
So were they right?  Or is that an old, unused feature that isn't 
supported anymore?
I believe his thought was that since it is already in database format 
(palm db), it is easier to convert it to another database format, then 
to try and go back to QIF's or something like that.
