Re: Server crash during simple c-language function

Thanks Robert for the test on MacOS X. I wanted to be sure that it is
not only my installation issue, so I tried the same on Windows Server
2003 with PostgreSQL 8.3; the same crash. Is there anybody who has
written a C-function on Windows platform?
