    Doc: remove some long-obsolete information from installation.sgml. · 76c2af92
    Tom Lane authored
    Section 16.2 pointed to platform-specific FAQ files that we removed
    way back in 8.4.  Section 16.7 contained a bunch of information about
    AIX and HPUX bugs that were squashed decades ago, plus discussions of
    old compiler versions that are certainly moot now that we require C99
    support.  Since we're obviously not maintaining this stuff carefully,
    just remove it.  The HPUX sub-section seems like it can go away
    entirely, since everything it said that was still applicable was
    redundant with material elsewhere in the chapter.
    
    In passing, I couldn't resist the temptation to do a small amount
    of copy-editing on nearby text.
    
    Back-patch to v12, since this stuff is surely obsolete in any
    branch that requires C99.
