From c343314882f1c9461eeb227ce7807f2aa8515470 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Lane Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2017 13:13:47 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Further tweaks to compiler flags for PL/Perl on Windows. It now emerges that we can only rely on Perl to tell us we must use -D_USE_32BIT_TIME_T if it's Perl 5.13.4 or later. For older versions, revert to our previous practice of assuming we need that symbol in all 32-bit Windows builds. This is not ideal, but inquiring into which compiler version Perl was built with seems far too fragile. In any case, we had not previously had complaints about these old Perl versions, so let's assume this is Good Enough. (It's still better than the situation ante commit 5a5c2feca, in that at least the effects are confined to PL/Perl rather than the whole PG build.) Back-patch to all supported versions, like 5a5c2feca and predecessors.
