        Win32 port is now called 'win32' rather than 'win'
        add -lwsock32 on Win32
        make gethostname() be only used when kerberos4 is enabled
        use /port/getopt.c
        new /port/opendir.c routines
        disable GUC unix_socket_group on Win32
        convert some keywords.c symbols to KEYWORD_P to prevent conflict
        create new FCNTL_NONBLOCK macro to turn off socket blocking
        create new /include/port.h file that has /port prototypes, move
          out of c.h
        new /include/port/win32_include dir to hold missing include files
        work around ERROR being defined in Win32 includes

Some makefile simplifications.

* -Add BSD-licensed qsort() for Solaris

configure.in.

As proof of concept, provide an alternate implementation based on POSIX
semaphores.  Also push the SysV shared-memory implementation into a
separate file so that it can be replaced conveniently.

  src/GNUmakefile.in to src/Makefile
and
  src/backend/port/Makefile.in to src/backend/port/Makefile

All configure substitutions are now done in Makefile.global.

'ifdef' in Makefile.

different directory.  This makes dependency tracking work and copes with
compilers that don't suport -c and -o together.

source directory.  This involves mostly makefiles using $(srcdir) when they
might have used ".".  (Regression tests don't work with this, yet.)

Sort out usage of CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS (and CXXFLAGS).  Add "override" keyword
in most places, to preserve necessary flags even when the user overrode the
flags.

after that dynamic loading isn't working and shared memory handling is
broken.

        Attached with this message, there is a Zip file which contain :

        * beos.diff = patch file generated with difforig
        * beos = folder with beos support files which need to be moved in /
src/backend/port
        * expected = foler with three file for message and precision
difference in regression test
        * regression.diff = rule problem (need to kill the backend manualy)
        * dynloader = dynloader files (they are also in the pacth files,
but there is so much modification that I have join full files)

        Everything works except a problem in 'rules' Is there some problems
with rules in the current tree ? It used to works with last week tree.

to one another. Sort out builddir vs srcdir variable namings. Remove some
now obsoleted make variables.

the src/include tree, so that -I backend is no longer necessary anywhere.
Also, clean up some bit rot in contrib tree.

backend/Makefiles to be patched could significantly be reduced since
they
have been adopted to the QNX4 needs.

Adrian Hall reported a problem to me that snprintf() doesn't exist in, at
least, Solaris 2.5.1.  We use it in backend/utils/adt/int8.c.

Add a check to configure so that we see if it exists or not, and, if not,
compile in snprintf.c from backend/port, which was taken from, and falls under
the same Berkeley license as us, the FreeBSD libc/stdio ...

Attached you'll find a (big) patch that fixes make dep and make
depend in all Makefiles where I found it to be appropriate.

It also removes the dependency in Makefile.global for NAMEDATALEN
and OIDNAMELEN by making backend/catalog/genbki.sh and bin/initdb/initdb.sh
a little smarter.

This no longer requires initdb.sh that is turned into initdb with
a sed script when installing Postgres, hence initdb.sh should be
renamed to initdb (after the patch has been applied :-) )

This patch is against the 6.3 sources, as it took a while to
complete.

Please review and apply,

Cheers,

Ok. I have decided to use:

#if defined(sun) && if defined(sparc) && !defined(__svr4)

instead of defined(sunos4).  interfaces/libpq/libpq-fe.h and
include/c.h have been modified(see included patches).

Another porblems I have found are:

o SunOS lacks strtoul(). to fix this I stole strtoul.c from FreeBSD
and place it under backend/port. necessary modifications have been
also made to backend/port/Makefile.in, include/config.h.in and
configure.in (see included patches).

it is (!isnan() && !finite()) instead

some of the ports...
