I might be all wet on this, but I had the idea that the __cpu__ forms were considered more standard/common. In any case, I can't see any good reason not to test for both. The amount of code saved by checking only one is negligible; why should we take a chance on breaking things for that? regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
