PostgreSQL builds are great for the portability. The next logical step
might in fact be to extend some of that consistency to the package

This would have been cool in 1996. We would have evolved a large number

OK, Oleg, I am applying this on your word only. I don't understand its
purpose, but you sent it with a 7.1.1 subject so I assume you want it in

Thanks a lot for your total and complete description of the process. (i
