In view of opposing comments like http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2002-03/msg01452.html I think we should stay out of this. It is not our business to get random Perl code to compile on random OS installations, and certainly not our business to interject random symbol definitions that might well break whatever solution the Perl guys themselves decide on. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
