Now, src/interfaces/perl5/Makefile.PL is pretty simple, and instead we
work a little harder in src/interfaces/Makefile.

This time, src/interfaces/perl5/Makefile.PL no longer needs to be autoconf'd.

libtcl has been installed as a non-shared library.  pltcl cannot be
built in that situation; we want to do nothing and let the overall Postgres
build complete, rather than failing.

DataDir is set after read_pg_options if postgres is called
interactively.  If postgres is forked by postgres DataDir is read from
the PGDATA enviromnent variable set by the postmaster and this explains
while the bug disappears.  I have written this patch but I don't like
it. Any better idea?

        $(LD) $(LDFLAGS_SL) -o $@ ecpglib.sho typename.sho.o

must be
        $(LD) $(LDFLAGS_SL) -o $@ ecpglib.sho.o typename.sho.o

compile out of the tar file on Solaris with the SUN 5.0 compilers.
These compilers will be needed if you wan to compile the libpg++
interface without using the gcc/g++. The SC4.2 compilers do not
understand the string class.

The first patch changes the ecpg intermediate shared library
name from *.sho to *.sho.o so that the SUN compiler will
allow it to be used in conjunction with the -o option.

Include soft links in the installation directory for major version number.
Use the existing $(DLSUFFIX) parameter to name shared library.

 of the proper cpp program.

 from stdin. Necessary at least for systems missing cpp but having gcc -E.
Include new configured file backend/catalog/genbki.sh.

 timestamp had become a token a while ago, but had been omitted from the
 keywords.c until recently. This uncovered the omission in the ColId decl.

Updated regression.diffs file for Solaris x86...

From: Peter Gucwa <pg@softcomputer.com>

Here are patches needed to complie under AIX 4.2.
I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.

New regression results for Solaris-Sparc 2.6 w/ gcc 2.8.1

This is plain wrong, but check to see if DataDir was set *before* running
read_pg_options ... read_pg_options should probably be moved to after the
getopt() instead?

case statement in select call was missing a break...

change configure so that if postgresql isn't being installed as root,
do not configure in the perl5 interface.

the perl5 interface needs to be installed under /usr/local/lib/perl5/*, which
is generally owned by root.  This allows a non-root build/install with the
only root requirement being the make/install of hte perl5 stuff...

Remove the -soname ${SHLIB} from solaris_{sparc,x86} as they conflict
with the -o $@ used in the ${SHLIB} directive, causing a failure for
*at least* gcc2.8.1 + Solaris 2.6 under both hardware platforms...
