Hello,

attached is a patch for main.c.

The files netware.h and netware.c are for src/backend/port/dynloader

Can anybody create the directory netware at src/backend/port?

The changes in main.c are very small and i've documented them in the
sourcecode.

Thank you.

Ulrich

I wish we didn't have to add this part of the patch to main.c:

+ /*
+ * If the first argument is "-post", then invoke postmaster mode. Note
+ * we remove "-post" from the arguments passed on to BootstrapMain.
+ * This is added for one reasons: NetWare doesn't have symbolic links
+ * right. ((
+ */
+ if (argc > 1 && strcmp(new_argv[1], "-post") == 0)
+ exit(PostmasterMain(argc - 1, new_argv + 1));

Do we have to document this, but only for Netware? Yuck.
