Bruce Momjian 5035d7b985 pg_atoi() does range check on int4 data only if
"HAS_LONG_LONG" is defined based on the assumption that
strtol() would return ERANGE if a platform does not support
64-bit integers. In current PostgreSQL 6.5 (and 6.4.2)
distribution, "HAS_LONG_LONG" is defined only if platform
is "alpha". (See include/port/alpha.h) I think the int4
range check should apply to linux_alpha as well. (I have
not tested yet but I guess this might be applicable to
newer Linux/i386 distributions which includes new GCC which
implements long int as 64-bit int.)
