This is exactly the sort of cruft I was hoping we would not get saddled with by a Windows port. If the problem is that we need PKGLIBDIR not to be frozen at compile time, then let's fix the problem for everybody, not add a pile of undocumented #ifdef WIN32 hacks. (And it is a problem for everybody; see for example http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2004-03/msg00894.php which boils down to the complaint that pkglibdir shouldn't be frozen by configure. The RPM packagers would also be happier if they could make relocatable RPMs of Postgres.) Every "#ifdef WIN32" I see reduces my opinion of the quality of work being done for this port. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
