some massaging by Peter Eisentraut.  This is basically a simple
generalization of the existing contrib makefiles.

from PostgreSQL, as in the case of the ODBC driver.

for all ports.  It can't hurt if they are not supported, but it makes
our job easier for porting.

Should fix Darwin compile and other platforms without mucking with the
thread detection code.

Allow additional thread flags to be added via port templates.

Change thread flag names to PTHREAD_CFLAGS and PTHREAD_LIBS to match new
configure script.

Backpatch to 7.4.X.  Required for Solaris 7 & 8.

-fno-strict-aliasing.

docbook style sheets, as discussed with Peter.

$Header: -> $PostgreSQL Changes ...

back --infodir, which several automatic build environments expect to exist.
Add --without-docdir to prevent installation of documentation, which is
helpful for things like RPM that have their own method of installing
documentation.

have included a few fixes over the years to make them more robust and
faster.

When --enable-debug is used, then the default CFLAGS for non-GCC is just
-g without -O.

Backpatch enhancement of Autoconf inline test that detects problems with
the HP C compiler.

option -fno-strict-aliasing is available.

        o allow configure to see include/port/win32 include files
        o add matching Win32 accept() prototype
        o allow pg_id to compile with native Win32 API
        o fix invalide mbvalidate() function calls (existing bug)
        o allow /scripts to compile with native Win32 API
        o add win32.c to Win32 compiles (already in *.mak files)

unneeded configure work.

was modified for IPv6.  Use a robust definition of struct sockaddr_storage,
do a proper configure test to see if ss_len exists, don't assume that
getnameinfo() will handle AF_UNIX sockets, don't trust getaddrinfo to
return the protocol we ask for, etc.  This incorporates several outstanding
patches from Kurt Roeckx, but I'm to blame for anything that doesn't
work ...

Also handle __ss_family as a synonym for ss_family.

it added about three more things to pg_config.h.in than I was expecting...

all this functionality --- eg, how much stuff should appear in the

separate macro.  Also add support for %I64d which is the way on Windows.

The code that checks for the 64-bit int type now gives more reasonable
results when cross-compiling: In that case we just take the compiler's
information and trust that the arithmetic works.  Disabling int64 is too
pessimistic.

Some makefile simplifications.

UNIQUE and DISTINCT predicates are both listed as implemented -- AFAIK,
neither is.

I also included another trivial patch which adds the default location
of the DSSSL stylesheets on my system (Debian unstable, docbook-dsssl
1.76) to the list of paths that configure looks for.

system, not Tcl-provided one.

Make sure export file, if any, is cleaned.

Tcl configuration is now read directly in configure and recorded in
Makefile.global.  This eliminates some duplicate efforts and allows
for easier hand-editing of the results, if necessary.

which covers some recent installation schemes.

Add Mandrake installation layout to directories to check for stylesheets.

Allow documentation build to proceed if stylesheets were not found, in case
the stylesheets might be found through the SGML catalog mechanism.

and --without-zlib to turn them off.
