I am unsure how to address this NetBSD/alpha patch.
> Here are minimal patches to get 7.0 beta 3 limping along on NetBSD/alpha
> release 1.4.1.
>
> There are lots of problems with the oid handling, and I can't get it
> to successfully even begin to do a make runcheck, make runtest, or
> make bigtest.
>
> The results of a maketest are:
> =============== Notes... =================
> postmaster must already be running for the regression tests to succeed.
> The time zone is set to PST8PDT for these tests by the client frontend.
> Please report any apparent problems to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
> See regress/README for more information.
>
> =============== dropping old regression database... =================
> ERROR: typeidTypeRelid: Invalid type - oid = 0
> dropdb: database removal failed
> =============== creating new regression database... =================
> ERROR: createdb: database 'regression' already exists
> createdb: database creation failed
> createdb failed
>
> Minimal patches are attached. They are enough to get 7.0 beta 3 up
> and able to do minimal SQL queries. They are also required to get
> it to build at all.
