used to work as intended, but got broken some time ago (a quoted empty string is not an empty string), and got broken some more by the changes to generate ecpg's preproc.y automatically. Given all the unprotected uses of $(PERL) elsewhere, it seems best to make use of the $(missing) script rather than trying to ensure each such use is protected individually. Also fix various bits of documentation that omitted to mention Perl as a requirement for building from a CVS pull. Per a complaint from Robert Haas.

(This file does not appear in release tarballs.)

In a release or snapshot tarball of PostgreSQL, documentation files named
|
|
INSTALL and HISTORY will appear in this directory. However, these files are
|
|
not stored in CVS and so will not be present if you are using a CVS checkout.
|
|
If you are using CVS, you can view the most recent install instructions at:
|
|
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/installation.html
|
|
and the current release notes at:
|
|
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/release.html
|
|
|
|
Users compiling from CVS will also need compatible versions of Bison, Flex,
|
|
and Perl, as discussed in the install documentation. These programs are not
|
|
needed when using a tarball, since the files they are needed to build are
|
|
already present in the tarball. (On Windows, however, you need Perl anyway.)
