That's just an AC_TRY_LINK test, we don't actually execute it. If we did, the test would fail on machines where resolution of "localhost" is broken, which we already know is a not-so-rare disease ... I'm not sure that I believe the "getaddrinfo doesn't work" diagnosis anyway, seeing that bear gets through "make check" okay. Wouldn't that fail too if there were a problem there? > Second, it appears that this platform apparently doesn't handle Infinity > and NaN well. The regression diffs are attached. On the FPE front, it'd be useful to get a gdb traceback to see where the SIGFPE is occurring. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
