I kind of agree with Nico: why do we think we get to tell operating system distributions which switches they're allowed to need to make things work? The point of things like pg_config and xmlconfig is to reveal what is needed. If we editorialize on that, we do so at our own risk. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
