The thing is that a machine as weird as Sparc uncovers strange failures that don't show up in other architectures.

I think it's useful to have such a thing in the buildfarm. -- Álvaro Herrera http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
