I seriously doubt that we'd take patches to run on non-mainstream OSes without a concomitant promise to support buildfarm animals running such OSes for the foreseeable future. Without that we don't know if the patches still work even a week after they're committed. We killed the above-mentioned OSes mainly for lack of any such animals, IIRC. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
