Great. I was afraid it might have been new with 10.2.
Also, 7.3.4 doesn't link on the OS X 10.3 beta's. Apparently tas is never being defined. I could never fix this. In the list archives I found all sorts of references to tas()/TAS and older versions of postgres on other operating systems, but I simply couldn't figure out how to make it happen on OS X 10.3.
the #if defined(__APPLE__) || defined(__ppc__) section of s_lock.c was being used, as best I could tell. It defines a method named "void tas_dummy()". And s_lock.h declares "extern int tas(slock_t *lock)" and "#define TAS(lock) tas(lock)".... but how those match up to tas_dummy() I don't know.
Everything compiles, then ld says:
ld: Undefined Symbol _tas
any ideas here? 7.3.2 and 7.4beta3 compile just fine (I noticed that 7.4 has something more cross-platform for tas). What happened in 7.3.4 that broke it?
