Grumble ... looks like we have to use ftruncate to keep Windows
happy. Will fix.

I just fixed a second bug in that patch :-(
But I think we're good to go now.

Note that none of the version-stamping has been done yet.
Also, I'm not sure where Bruce is with his pgindent stuff.

Right, I believe only Marc does that. I have never touched it for beta.

I am done with pgindent, thanks. I was even able to pgindent files I
had to skip in the past.

Should we wait longer for the buildfarm to become more green?

Any idea on how often narwhal will do a build? are we talking 24hr to wait to
see if it goes green?:)

It looks that it builds -HEAD every 6 hours:

http://pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_history.pl?nm=narwhal&br=HEAD

and the next build is 2 hours later.

'k, then I'd say let's wait ... I'll aim for 00:00 AST to do the build, which
gives ~2.25hrs from now, which should be loads of time, right?

Yeah. Theoretically we should be OK because we have a couple of
green results from MSVC animals, but I wouldn't mind waiting two
hours to see one from a Windows/gcc build.

I already asked Dave if he could force a rebuild from home, no go :-(

Since we are waiting anyway, something I brought up to Dave about this
exact problem was the idea of a "freeze" :). E.g; All animals must go
green and stay green with zero additional commits for 24 hours before
we wrap.

Is that something that sounds reasonable?

Sounds like a good way to waste a day. Even more likely, people would
hold off fixing problems till after a beta, because it would reset the
counter; and then commit the changes later, guaranteeing that they'd get
*less* testing.

That's not even mentioning the problem that animals fail on a near-daily
basis for reasons beyond our control.

I'm not in favor of arbitrary rules. The buildfarm is a tool to serve
us, not vice versa.

narwhal and dawn_bat are both showing green, so I think we're ready to
wrap at Marc's convenience.
