Before, some places didn't document the short options (-? and -V),
some documented both, some documented nothing, and they were listed in
various orders. Now this is hopefully more consistent and complete.
It currently doesn't make a difference, but it's inconsistent with
most other usage, and it might interfere with a future patch, so I'll
change it all in a separate commit.
Also, replace tabs with spaces for alignment.
Replace for loops in makefiles with proper dependencies. Parallel
make can now span across directories. Also, make -k and make -q work
properly.
GNU make 3.80 or newer is now required.
linking both executables and shared libraries, and we add on LDFLAGS_EX when
linking executables or LDFLAGS_SL when linking shared libraries. This
provides a significantly cleaner way of dealing with link-time switches than
the former behavior. Also, make sure that the various platform-specific
%.so: %.o rules incorporate LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_SL; most of them missed that
before. (I did not add these variables for the platforms that invoke $(LD)
directly, however. It's not clear if we can do that safely, since for the
most part we assume these variables use CC command-line syntax.)
Per gripe from Aaron Swenson and subsequent investigation.
Update install-sh to that from Autoconf 2.63, plus our Darwin-specific
changes (which I simplified a bit). install-sh is now able to install
multiple files in one run, so we could simplify our makefiles sometime.
install-sh also now has a -d option to create directories, so we don't need
mkinstalldirs anymore.
Use AC_PROG_MKDIR_P in configure.in, so we can use mkdir -p when available
instead of install-sh -d. For consistency with the rest of the world,
the corresponding make variable has been renamed from $(mkinstalldirs) to
$(MKDIR_P).
inclusions in src/include/catalog/*.h files. The main idea here is to push
function declarations for src/backend/catalog/*.c files into separate headers,
rather than sticking them into the corresponding catalog definition file as
has been done in the past. This commit only carries out that idea fully for
pg_proc, pg_type and pg_conversion, but that's enough for the moment ---
if pg_list.h ever becomes unsafe for frontend code to include, we'll need
to work a bit more.

duplicative -DFRONTEND flags from many Makefiles. We still need Makefile
control of the symbol in a few places that compile frontend-or-backend
src/port/ files, but it's a lot cleaner than before.

I take out patch for this as a promise. This is client-build support of
MS-VC6+.
Fix for different getaddrinfo structure ordering on Win32 for IPv6.

I have the problem, when building by MS-VC6.
An error occurs in the 8.1.0 present source codes.
nmake -f win32.mak
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(244) : error C2065: 'WSA_NOT_ENOUGH_MEMORY'
..\..\port\getaddrinfo.c(342) : error C2065: 'WSATYPE_NOT_FOUND'
This is used by winsock2.h. However, Construction of a windows base is
winsock.h.
Then, Since MinGW has special environment, this is right. but, it is not
found in VC6.
Furthermore, in getaddrinfo.c, IPV6-API is used by
LoadLibraryA("ws2_32");
Referring to of dll the external memory generates this violation by VC6
specification.
I considered whether the whole should have been converted into winsock2.
However, Now, DLL of MinGW creation operates wonderfully as it is.
That's right, it has pliability by replacement of simple DLL.
Then, I propose the system using winsock(non IPV6) in construction of
VC6.

relocated after installation. We can't trust the installation paths
inserted into Makefile.global by configure, so instead we must get the
paths from pg_config. This requires extending pg_config to support all
the separately-configurable path names, but that was on TODO anyway.
CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CFLAGS_SL, LDFLAGS, LDFLAGS_SL, and LIBS. Change it
so that invoking pg_config with no arguments reports all available
information, rather than just giving an error message. Per discussion.
Also performed an initial run through of upgrading our Copyright date to
extend to 2005 ... first run here was very simple ... change everything
where: grep 1996-2004 && the word 'Copyright' ... scanned through the
generated list with 'less' first, and after, to make sure that I only
picked up the right entries ...
