Re: Compile of pgsql v7.1.3 fails on Red Hat 8.0

If PostgreSQL failed to compile on your computer or you found a bug that
is likely to be specific to one platform then please fill out this form
and e-mail it to pgsql-ports(at)postgresql(dot)org(dot)

To report any other bug, fill out the form below and e-mail it to
pgsql-bugs(at)postgresql(dot)org(dot)

If you not only found the problem but solved it and generated a patch
then e-mail it to pgsql-patches(at)postgresql(dot)org instead. Please use the
command "diff -c" to generate the patch.

You may also enter a bug report at http://www.postgresql.org/ instead of
e-mail-ing this form.

It looks to me like the config.h file generated by configure is hosed.

The most likely explanation is that you're working from a corrupted
download. If that's not it, maybe there's something bogus about your
copies of the tools configure uses to generate its output (principally
awk and sed).

Tom, this is a known problem with compiles of 7.1.3 (seven point ONE point
three) on gcc3.2, regardless of distribution. Reference our earlier (couple
or three months ago) discussions related to upgrading for the same issue.

I dug in the archives and couldn't find any such discussion; can you
locate it?

The specific message is

The thread is 'Upgrading Rant'.

Not the best of memories; however, the above message is yours.
