Just pointing at the message where this has been discussed previously, for reference: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/1457809.1662232...@sss.pgh.pa.us Leaving Solaris aside because there is nothing older than 11 in the buildfarm currently, I am dubious that it is a good idea to remove this code knowing that we have a thread from a few months ago about the fact that we have folks complaining about AIX support and that we should bring it back: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/cy5pr11mb63928cc05906f27fb10d74d0fd...@cy5pr11mb6392.namprd11.prod.outlook.com -- Michael
