Usually the search would find plain "tclsh" without any trouble,
but some installations might only have the version-numbered flavor
of that program.
No compatibility problems have been reported with 8.6, so we might
as well back-patch this to all active branches.

We previously found out that OS X's standard perl installation tries to put
-arch switches into Perl link commands, evidently in hopes of building
universal binaries. But it doesn't work to add such switches in plperl's
link step if they weren't being used earlier, so this is basically
unworkable. When using gcc the result is only some warnings; but LLVM
fails entirely, so this issue isn't as cosmetic as we originally thought.
Hence, back-patch commit d69a419e68 into
pre-9.0 branches.
Apparently there is no buildfarm critter exercising this case after all,
because it fails in several places. With this patch, build, install,
check-world, and installcheck-world pass for me on OS X.
used to work as intended, but got broken some time ago (a quoted empty string
is not an empty string), and got broken some more by the changes to generate
ecpg's preproc.y automatically. Given all the unprotected uses of $(PERL)
elsewhere, it seems best to make use of the $(missing) script rather than
trying to ensure each such use is protected individually. Also fix various
bits of documentation that omitted to mention Perl as a requirement for
building from a CVS pull. Per a complaint from Robert Haas.
print foo --> print(foo)
string.join(...) --> ' '.join(...)
These changes are backward compatible.
The actual plpython module appears to need significant updates to support
Python 3.0, though. This change just relieves interested developers from
having to deal with Autoconf.
vintage Linux is even more broken than we realized: a link to libreadline
will succeed, and fail only at runtime. It seems that an AC_TRY_RUN test
is the only reliable way to check whether this is really safe. Per report
from Tatsuo.
shared libraries. We've tried this before and had problems with libreadline
not linking properly on some platforms, but that seems to be a libreadline
bug that may have been fixed by now. In any case, it's early enough in the
8.4 devel cycle that we can afford to have some transient breakage while
we work out any portability problems.
On Darwin, we try -Wl,-dead_strip_dylibs, which seems to be the equivalent
incantation there.
uses of the long-deprecated float32 in contrib/seg; the definitions themselves
are still there, but no longer used. fmgr/README updated to match.
I added a CREATE FUNCTION to account for existing seg_center() code in seg.c
too, and some tests for it and the neighbor functions. At the same time,
remove checks for NULL which are not needed (because the functions are declared
STRICT).
I had to do some adjustments to contrib's btree_gist too. The choices for
representation there are not ideal for changing the underlying types :-(
Original patch by Zoltan Boszormenyi, with some adjustments by me.
- Change configure.in to use Autoconf 2.61 and update generated files.
- Update build system and documentation to support now directory variables
offered by Autoconf 2.61.
- Replace usages of PGAC_CHECK_ALIGNOF by AC_CHECK_ALIGNOF, now available
in Autoconf 2.61.
- Drop our patched version of AC_C_INLINE, as Autoconf now has the change.
code relies on the checking macro actually being called at the end, or the
automatic undiversion will produce garbage. These sort of implicit
side-effects undermine the modularity of the macros and happen to break the
ODBC driver which makes use of them.
Also put the warnings at the very end of configure, so there is an even
better chance of seeing them.
