Sounds good. Do we want to try Noah's idea of temporarily committing
the remaining changes, to see if the buildfarm is happy?
I think to get value out of this you'd have to compare the config.status
output files (mainly pg_config.h and Makefile.global) before and after.
Otherwise you're just testing that the shell can parse the script.
Perhaps some manual tests on, say, AIX and HP-UX using the native shell
would be of some value.
I already did that on assorted boxes, using the patches you previously
posted [1]. Do you think there's value in re-doing it manually,
rather than just having at it with the buildfarm?
I think right now we don't need any further organized testing.
