I'm not sure of the best way, since I don't know how the build system in PostgreSQL works. The configure script would be the likely place, but it would also be a sparc64 specific addition. Other 32/64 architectures would need similar fixes, and those types of systems are increasing in number. I would suggest something close to ditching calling ld directly, so that the CC env can make things work smoothly. -- Debian - http://www.debian.org/ Linux 1394 - http://www.linux1394.org/ Subversion - http://subversion.tigris.org/ WatchGuard - http://www.watchguard.com/
