I've been working to make PostgreSQL run on SunOS4 (again).
So far I have found following issues:
o c.h 's sunos4 part should not include varargs.h. (Tom has already
fixed it) Instead, stdlib.h and stdarg.h should be included.
o no RAND_MAX or EXIT_FAILURE found. I simply added them to c.h.

Hm. destroydb was renamed to dropdb a release or two back, but it seems
mbregress.sh hasn't gotten the word yet.

Good point. I didn't realize it. Will fix.

You're thinking of indexes, perhaps? I don't recall ever seeing any
sign of a header page on heap files.
I was just thinking that perhaps as part of the "beta" release process
it would be worthwhile saying "New beta about to be released" (or
similar) and then have the appropriate people for each platform/OS do a
compile against the up-to-the-minute CVS and give a yes/no for each of
their platforms.
As well as Linux I run Solaris 8 SPARC (32-bit not 64), Solaris 7 SPARC
(SMP, 32-bit not 64), Solaris 7 Intel (both SMP and uni-processor) and
Solaris 8 Intel (both SMP and uni-processor).
I can be counted on to do testing of these as required in about 2 weeks
from now, after I get a new permanen
Do we put special information into the first page of each heap file? I
thought we used to, but I don't see that anymore.

I can find no use of LP_DELETE as defined as a flag in storage/itemid.h.
A few places test it, but no one sets it.
Can anyone else? Can I remove it in 7.2?

The real point is that we need to serve several different purposes

Why not add CFLAGS=+02 to the hpux template?
Also, it should work now to build with any random combination of C and C++
compilers, so maybe try that and remove that point.

Hi all,
As a matter of curiosity, is each beta compiled and then regression
tested against *every* one of the known "supported" platforms before
release?
Like, as an official "checklist" type step?
