I don't think that commit changed sizeof(PGPROC), but it did affect the position of the delayChkpt and statusFlags members within the struct, which is what we now need to fix. Since I don't hear anyone else volunteering to take care of that, I'll go work on it. -- Robert Haas EDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com
