Hello VAX Enthusiasts: PostgreSQL currently has some very minimal code to support the VAX architecture. We have never supported OpenVMS, so this code would only be used if someone were to compile PostgreSQL for VAX on an operating system that we *do* support, such as NetBSD or OpenBSD. However, we don't know of anyone who has tried to do this in a very long time, and are therefore considering removing the remaining support for the VAX platform. Has anyone tried to build PostgreSQL for VAX lately? If so, did it compile? Did you have to use --disable-spinlocks to get it to compile? If it did compile, can you actually run it, and does it pass the regression tests and work as expected? Would you be willing to work with the PostgreSQL to ensure continuing support for this platform, or does that seem not worthwhile for whatever reason?
