Good point, all attributes that actually change program behavior (aligned and packed for now) need to error out during compilation if they're used and they're not supported by the compiler. Attributes which may improve optimization or just provide more information for the developers (noreturn, unused, format) can be defined empty when they're not supported (or are not supported well enough: GCC < 3 doesn't know about %z in printf format.) / Oskari -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
