working on the VERY latest version of BeOS.  I'm sure there will be
alot of comments, but then if there weren't I'd be disappointed!

Thanks for your continuing efforts to get this into your tree.

Haven't bothered with the new files as they haven't changed.

BTW Peter, the compiler is "broken" about the bool define and so on.
I'm filing a bug report to try and get it addressed.  Hopefully then we
can tidy up the code a bit.

I await the replies with interest :)

to start up a postmaster anyway.

problems with some bits of it, but when all the patches are in it'll build
and we can fix it from there :)  I've got a version that builds and runs and
that is the basis for these patches.

The first file has the new additional files that are required,
    template/beos
    backend/port/dynloader/beos.c
    backend/port/dynloader/beos.h
    include/port/beos.h
    makefiles/Makefile.beos

The second is a tarball of diffs against a few files.  I've added sys/ipc.h
to configure and config.h via configure.in and config.h.in and then started
adding the check as this file isn't needed on BeOS and having loads of
#ifdef BEOS isn't as obvious as #ifdef HAVE_SYS_IPC_H and isn't as
autconf'ish :)
Files touched are
    include/c.h
    configure.in
    include/config.h.in
    include/storage/ipc.h
    include/utils/int8.h

Let me know how these go.  I'll await a response before submitting any more.

Any problems just get in touch.

have already modified "next_insert()" in 7.0-ecpglib.  However
in the meaning of speed-up, the patch will be needed.

pg_regress.

is the same as the access permissions granted when a relation's relacl
field is NULL, ie, owner=all rights, world=no rights.

would close and then re-open rel being truncated.  Depending on the
luck of the draw, the re-opened relcache entry might or might not be
at the same physical location as before.  Unfortunately, if it wasn't
then heap_truncate would crash and burn, because it still had a pointer
at the old location.  Fix is to open and then close rel in
RelationTruncateIndexes, so that rel's refcount never goes to zero
until heap_truncate is done.

and the fmgr redesign.

It makes the homebrewn dl*() functions for more recent Versions of AIX
obsolete
by using the system dl*() functions instead.

It also fixes the expected file for the horology regression test.
Please regenerate configure from configure.in, I don't have the
environment/time.

names for the HTML files (e.g., not x4856.htm).

(Don't forget that an alias is required.)  Views reimplemented as expanding
to subselect-in-FROM.  Grouping, aggregates, DISTINCT in views actually
work now (he says optimistically).  No UNION support in subselects/views
yet, but I have some ideas about that.  Rule-related permissions checking
moved out of rewriter and into executor.
INITDB REQUIRED!

add "check" and "installcheck" targets, straighten out make variable naming
of host_os, host_cpu, etc.

either way (although the former is preferred by the Cygwin folks
themselves), but using only one seems nicer.

`mkdir -p' works.

the LIBS variable.

Remove compiler waring(my fault).

Update the installation instructions (formerly misnamed "FAQ"), add configure
checks for some headers rather than having users copy stubs manually (ugh!).
Use Autoconf check for exe extension.  This also avoids inheriting the value
of $(X) from the environment.
