Context diff this time.
Remove -m486 compile args for FreeBSD-i386, compile -O2 on i386.
Compile with only -O on alpha for codegen safety.
Make the port use the TEST_AND_SET for alpha and i386 on FreeBSD.
Fix a lot of bogus string formats for outputting pointers (cast to int
and %u/%x replaced with no cast and %p), and 'Size'(size_t) are now
cast to 'unsigned long' and output with %lu/
Remove an unused variable.

from bufmgr - it would be nice to have separate hash in smgr
for node <--> fd mappings, but for the moment it's easy to
add new hash to relcache.
Fixed small bug in xlog.c:ReadRecord.
it will close VFDs if necessary to surmount ENFILE or EMFILE failures.
Make use of this in md.c, xlog.c, and user.c routines that were
formerly vulnerable to these failures. In particular, this should
handle failures of mdblindwrt() that have been observed under heavy
load conditions. (By golly, every other process on the system may
crash after Postgres eats up all the kernel FDs, but Postgres will
keep going!)
(Subj: [PORTS] initdb problem on NT with 7.0). Since nobody helped me,
I had to find out the reson. The difference between NT and Linux (for
instance) is that "open( path, O_RDWR );" opens a file in text mode. So
sometime less block can be read than required.
I suggest a following patch. BTW the situation appeared before, see
hba.c, pqcomm.c and others.

eliminating some wildly inconsistent coding in various parts of the
system. I set MAXPGPATH = 1024 in config.h.in. If anyone is really
convinced that there ought to be a configure-time test to set the
value, go right ahead ... but I think it's a waste of time.
when an initdb-forcing change has been applied within a development cycle.
PG_VERSION serves this purpose for official releases, but we can't bump
the PG_VERSION number every time we make a change to the catalogs during
development. Instead, increase the catalog version number to warn other
developers that you've made an incompatible change. See my mail to
pghackers for more info.
