(--with-maxbackends). Add a postmaster switch (-N backends) that allows
the limit to be reduced at postmaster start time. (You can't increase it,
sorry to say, because there are still some fixed-size arrays.)
Grab the number of semaphores indicated by min(MAXBACKENDS, -N) at
postmaster startup, so that this particular form of bogus configuration
is exposed immediately rather than under heavy load.
for int8 support. configure now checks only snprintf() for int8 support,
not sprintf and sscanf as it used to. The reason for doing this is that
if we are supplying our own snprintf code (which does handle long long int),
we now only need working long long support in the compiler not in the
platform's C library. I have verified that int8 now passes regression test
on HPUX 9, and I think it should work on SunOS 4.1.* and other older
platforms if gcc is used.
instead of our own halfway-there code. Add AC_STRUCT_TIMEZONE call
to check whether tm_zone exists in struct tm. Revise reading of template
file so that templates can define any variables they feel like (and,
indeed, can execute arbitrary shell code) rather than being constrained
to a fixed set of variable names.
instead of relying on port's os.h to tell us. (Needed for HPUX
where system major version is not enough info.)
configure unsets USE_TK if X libraries not found.
doc/Makefile uses gzcat or zcat as found by autoconf.
selected when they match a prefix of the value. The previous method,
which stripped all version data from and then tried to match that
against .similar entries, was entirely useless when .similar contained
several entries for different version numbers of a single OS name.

I tried snapshot(Oct30) and made some patches.
# I think that it is confused to manage both Makefile.shlib and
# makefiles/Makefile.*, don't you?
* configure
Now FreeBSD 2.X is not supported..., so I added its entry.
If ELF_SYSTEM is set, gmake treat it defined even though
it is "false". So nothing should be set to use "ifdef".
BSD_SHLIB etc. may have same problems.
* Makefile.shlib
As you said, FreeBSD entry is much like BSD's.
I only added ELF_SYSTEM code.
* makefiles/Makefile.freebsd

Here are patches needed to complie under AIX 4.2.
I changed configure.in, pqcomm.c, config.h.in, and fe-connect.c.
Also I had to install flex because lex did not want to translate pgc.l.
do not configure in the perl5 interface.
the perl5 interface needs to be installed under /usr/local/lib/perl5/*, which
is generally owned by root. This allows a non-root build/install with the
only root requirement being the make/install of hte perl5 stuff...
Before, "make install" did not run the lextest.
Fix up the ODBC make from this main configure.
Include configure test for "ln -s" in Makefile.global.in.
Was always in configure, just not carried through to here for use.
