Re: [GENERAL] Postgres 6.4.1 on DEC-ALPHA

I managed to compile postgres 6.4.1 without too much hassle, with the
following

./configure --with-CC=cc --without-CXX

There was only a single problem in

/data/build/pgsql/src/backend/port/snprintf.c

where around line 120 it should read


#ifndef HAVE_LONG_INT_64
static void fmtnum __P((long_long value, int base, int dosign, int ljust,
int le
n, int zpad));
#else
static void fmtnum __P((long value, int base, int dosign, int ljust, int
len, in
t zpad));
#endif


Then everything is fine. Don't even try with gcc -- I've also tried with
the gcc from egcs 1.0.3
and there are a lot of errors.

Problem is that even when postgres has compiled, it isn't working. I've
spent most of two days
on this now, but am back on 6.3.2 now (sigh).
