Hi all, I have a Debian machine with gcc 4.7.2-5 where make check-world fails in the isolation check, like so:
... make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/josh/src/postgresql/src/test/regress' make -C isolation check [snip] gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -Wmissing-format-attribute -Wformat-security -fno-strict-aliasing -fwrapv -fexcess-precision=standard -g -I. -I../../../src/interfaces/libpq -I./../regress -I../../../src/include -D_GNU_SOURCE -c -o isolation_main.o isolation_main.c gcc: error: ./specs: Is a directory make[2]: *** [isolation_main.o] Error 1 ... I eventually tracked down the cause of this failure to a trailing ':' in my $LIBRARY_PATH, which causes gcc to look inside the current directory for a 'specs' file [1] among other things. Although I probably don't need that trailing ':', it seems like we should avoid naming this directory 'specs' nonetheless to avoid confusion with gcc. Renaming the 'specs' directory to something like 'isolation_specs' and adjusting isolation_main.c accordingly lets me pass `make check-world`. Proposed patch attached.
