I think this indicates something unportable about ecpg's usage of va_list. Hmm, and I don't have to look far to find a smoking gun: #if defined(__GNUC__) && (defined (__powerpc__) || defined(__amd64__) || defined(__x86_64__)) if (create_statement(lineno, compat, force_indicator, con, &stmt, query, args) == false) #else if (create_statement(lineno, compat, force_indicator, con, &stmt, query, &args) == false) #endif Why in the world is that like that? We don't have such a kluge anyplace else we use va_list. stringinfo.c for instance has never needed any such thing. Mark, does your gcc define __powerpc__, or only __powerpc64__? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 1: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
