Right. but libpq should be built with -D_REENTRANT on UnixWare regardless of the --with-threads.
Well, let's see what additional functionality we need. I am not feeling too friendly on SCO/Unixware right now to jump through hoops.
platform, and SCO is thinking ****SERIOUSLY**** about shipping PG on the Platform
as part of their extensions offering.
What the fr*** harm is it in passing -D_REENTRANT into the libpq build on UnixWare
irregardless of the --with-threads* flag?
Same argument for allowing the PORT to determine whether to allow/permit the full
