From 07d4d36aae79cf2ac365e381ed3e7ce62dcfa783 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Tatsuo Ishii <ishii@postgresql.org>

Subject: [PATCH] On solaris, createdb/dropdb fails because of strange behavior
 of system(). (it returns error with errno ECHILD upon successful completion
 of commands). This fix ignores an error from system() if errno == ECHILD.
