I can't really imagine the reasons to support this switch at this time. Compile times are fast, disk space cheap, and if one wanted to avoid the dynamic linker entirely and use features like replication (which, IIRC, is dynamically linked for libpqwalreceiver.so) and plpgsql then people are out of luck without some work of (perhaps?) questionable value. -- fdr -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list ([email protected]) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
