1. Can't compile postgres 7 on HP-UX 10.2

   PostgreSQL Bugs List <pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org> — 2000-09-26T20:25:32Z

   Rick Bischoff (beckett@ductape.net) reports a bug with a severity of 1
   The lower the number the more severe it is.
   
   Short Description
   Can't compile postgres 7 on HP-UX 10.2
   
   Long Description
   HP-UX 10.2 machine with GNU binutils and gcc, g++, etc.
   Configure automatically uses HP's crappy "cc" when it finds out I am running a HP. 
   
   gmake fails with spurrous errors when...
     A) I leave Makefile.global exactly how configure left it
     B) When I edit it to use GCC and delete the annoying flags
   
   I really really need postgres 7 ported to HP-UX 10.2 for this application!! It's for enterprise level work and I think it will help make open Source headway at this fortune 500 company!

   Really?  The hpux_cc configuration worked last time I tried it.  How
   about some details on the error messages?
   
   BTW, have you read doc/FAQ_HPUX?  It hasn't been updated for awhile :-(
   but I think the advice is mostly still OK.
