I did - in the wxWidgets case, the existing module had some behaved badly in a number of ways and needed rewriting from scratch imho, and the PostgreSQL module was non-existent (and pretty quick to write). In fairness though, I expect the majority of the autoconf stuff that would need replacing would be much easier - simple library/header checks are very straightforward. -- Dave Page EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
