Ok, got you.

Question: I applied the patch for the drive_popcount* functions and rebuilt.  
The resultant server complains that the function is missing. What is the trick 
to make this work?

Another Question: Is there a reason "time psql" is used over the Postgres 
"\timing" command?

Thanks,
Paul
