Because it isn't entirely useless, actually. I agree that no

involving NULL, knowing th

I've just checked, by reading the relevant paragraphs and studying the
BNF, and the standard says that any comparison of the form X
Y is unknown if

I'd say that's the best way to handle stuff like this. If you

The way I interpret Celko's interpretation of SQL92, that specific
construct has a meaning; it evaluates to UNKNOWN, thus not

A friend of mine wants to use PostgreSQL instead of Oracle for a large

I don't have the standard handy, but I do have Joe Celko's book,

You may have something, there. My test run on the VAX was over NFS.
I set up NetBSD on a VAX specifically to test PostgreSQL 7.1, but I
didn't hav

This is a weakness in the configure script: it goes through a loop

This is obviously something that shows up on _some_ NetBSD platforms
