OK, only Unixware and OpenBSD went red on the buildfarm with threading enabled, so I have applied the more complete patch to enable thread safety on clients by default, e.g. doc changes. Andrew Dunstan is going to contact those build farm members so they use --disable-thread-safety. He has also agreed to update the buildfarm to detect this new option behavior. -- Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +
