It's not a bug, it's working as designed (not by me). It's certainly worth reexamining, but there are so many variations in this area (and Perl and Tcl are set up the same way) that I don't want to mess around in it now. A better approach for now would be to look for a configuration item in Python that tells us whether libpython contains PIC. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
