Tom Lane 85a2a8903f Allow CFLAGS from configure's environment to override automatic CFLAGS.
Previously, configure would add any switches that it chose of its own
accord to the end of the user-specified CFLAGS string.  Since most
compilers process these left-to-right, this meant that configure's choices
would override the user-specified flags in case of conflicts.  We'd rather
that worked the other way around, so adjust the logic to put the user's
string at the end not the beginning.

There does not seem to be a need for a similar behavior change for CPPFLAGS
or LDFLAGS: in those, the earlier switches tend to win (think -I or -L
behavior) so putting the user's string at the front is fine.

Backpatch to 9.4 but not earlier.  I'm not planning to run buildfarm member
guar on older branches, and it seems a bit risky to change this behavior
in long-stable branches.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
