The following patches will allow postgreSQL 6.3 to compile and run on a
UNIXWARE 2.1.2 system with the native C compiler with the following library
change:
The alloca function must be copied from the libucb.a archive and added
to the libgen.a archive.
Also, the GNU flex program is needed to successfully build postgreSQL.
The attached patches will allow postgreSQL to compile successfully on SCO
UNIXWARE 2.1.x. The patches fix the following problems:
1. Configure did not properly recognize the UNIXWARE system as needing the
univel port. It used the sys4 port.
2. Configure did not properly process the CC flag in the template file.
3. There was no working test and set locking implementation for the native
UNIXWARE compiler.
4. The test and set locking used for Intel X86 that was selected by defining
NEED_I386_TAS_ASM could fail in a multi-processor environment.
5. The makefiles for libpq and libpgtcl did not make a shared library for
the univel port.
Further extended Makefile.global/build/configure so that we can
have a 'template' file for each OS (and each version of OS, as in BSDi)
which is used as much as possible to generate Makefile.global
Any future ports should look at using the template file as a basis,
before moving over to Makefile.global.
This will most probably break alot of the ports, atho I've tried to
be very neat about it...
