b4feafb6ff Add support to port/snprintf.c for position parameter specification:
+ # Determine if printf supports %1$ argument selection, e.g. %5$ selects
+ # the fifth argument after the printf print string.
+ # This is not in the C99 standard, but in the Single Unix Specification (SUS).
+ # It is used in our langauge translation strings.

c833c6c558 Hack to work around broken linker on older NetBSD/OpenBSD/Irix assumed
that readline must depend on libcurses, but it seems more recent ones
use libtermcap instead.  Allow that case.

aef2d0d86c Fix readline/libedit selection code to prefer readline over libedit
reliably (ie, regardless of which libraries they depend on).  Also
make sure that we don't select headers that obviously belong to the
wrong one of the two libraries.  This was discussed back around 4-Sep
but seems to have slipped through the cracks.  The header selection
could be checked more closely, perhaps, but let's see if this is good
enough.

9b3fc492d3 If we're going to test for switch validity by observing whether the
compiler emits any warnings, the test program had better be 100%
correct, not only 90% correct.  The recent addition of -Wold-style-definition
broke thread-safety detection on every platform that has that switch,
because the test program used an old-style definition.

857e210ea9 When using GCC, change the default CFLAGS to:
-O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith

  -Wdeclaration-after-statement
  -Wendif-labels
  -Wold-style-definition

And add the supported flags to CFLAGS.

669ca7af83 Another try at making plpython autoconfiguration work correctly. Use a
-L spec rather than assuming libpython is in the standard search path
(this returns to the way 7.4 did it).  But check the distutils output
to see if it looks like Python has built a shared library, and if so
link with that instead of the probably-not-shared library found in
configdir.

e48322a6d6 Be more aggressive about adding flags to thread compiles. The configure
test only tests for building a binary, not building a shared library.

On Linux, you can build a binary with -pthread, but you can't build a
binary that uses a threaded shared library unless you also use -pthread
when building the binary, or adding -lpthread to the shared library
build.  This patch has the effect of doing the later by adding both
-pthread and -lpthread when building libpq.

df63503dc2 Have a go at fixing various outstanding portability issues in code that
was modified for IPv6.  Use a robust definition of struct sockaddr_storage,
do a proper configure test to see if ss_len exists, don't assume that
getnameinfo() will handle AF_UNIX sockets, don't trust getaddrinfo to
return the protocol we ask for, etc.  This incorporates several outstanding
patches from Kurt Roeckx, but I'm to blame for anything that doesn't
work ...

955a1f81a7 Factor out the code that detects the long long int snprintf format into a
separate macro.  Also add support for %I64d which is the way on Windows.

The code that checks for the 64-bit int type now gives more reasonable
results when cross-compiling: In that case we just take the compiler's
information and trust that the arithmetic works.  Disabling int64 is too
pessimistic.

e9c936ff38 Remove rangechecks on errno; just call strerror unconditionally. This
eliminates a raft of portability issues, including whether sys_nerr
exists, whether the platform has any valid negative errnos, etc.  The
downside is minimal: errno shouldn't ever contain an invalid value anyway,
and if it does, reasonably modern versions of strerror will not choke.
This rangecheck idea seemed good at the time, but it's clearly a net loss,
and I apologize to all concerned for having ever put it in.

6b70f3862c Also test for 'void *' as third arg of accept() (as on Solaris 7 and 8),
but take it as 'int *' instead.

Add real test for whether ld -R works on Unixware.

Rename --enable-uniconv to --enable-unicode-conversion.

Install shlibs mode 755 by default, since 644 causes gratuitous complaints
from ldd et al. on some systems.

7267fdd7a3 Add some configure checks for DocBook and related tools. With a somewhat
standard installation layout it should be possible to build the HTML
and print documentation without additional manual setup.

dfda21e7a6 Add configure check to see whether <string.h> and <strings.h> may both be
included, and then include <strings.h> if so.  Several systems already
needed <strings.h> anyway.  Some new systems that claim to conform to the
Unix 9x "standard" do not declare str[n]casemp() in string.h, and C99
compilers will not like that.

0f5169b4af New config.guess and config.sub with Darwin support (from official GNU
source).  Adjust resultmap accordingly and fix some other regexps.

3daa17173b Don't call AC_SUBST (in libtool.m4) before AC_INIT. The m4 diversions get
messed up and we end up with the comments from included files in the output
"configure".

12e7558c76 Add check for GNU or not GNU ld, needed to pick the right export_dynamic
flags for Solaris.  The test itself is straight from libtool.

805e431a38 Add support for VPATH builds, that is, building somewhere else than in the
source directory.  This involves mostly makefiles using $(srcdir) when they
might have used ".".  (Regression tests don't work with this, yet.)

Sort out usage of CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS (and CXXFLAGS).  Add "override" keyword
in most places, to preserve necessary flags even when the user overrode the
flags.

664ce79dd8 Fixes for Cygwin, with help from Pete Forman <gsez020@kryten.bedford.waii.com>.
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.

f428d053ce Revise Tcl/Tk configuration. Make missing Tcl after --with-tcl an error,
add --without-tk option to disable Tk.  We don't need the AC_PATH_XTRA
test because tkConfig.sh already contains all the information about how to
compile and link with X.  Also make sure that libpq is up to date for
libpgtcl.  Remove executable bits from pgaccess.sh, but add it to pgaccess.

353371874f Replace brain-dead Autoconf macros AC_ARG_{ENABLE,WITH} with something
that's actually useful, robust, consistent.

Better plan to generate aclocal.m4 as well: use m4 include directives,
rather than cat.

f03fc94e7d New configure test for flex, which recognizes only flex but does so in all
incarnations (I hope). When an acceptable flex version is not found, print
instructive error messages from both configure and the makefiles, so that
users can continue building anyway.

662f6a557c Fix AC_FUNC_ACCEPT_ARGTYPES to accept `const struct sockaddr *' as second
argument, change the order of tests for the third argument to be safe
against missing prototypes, and make it fail hard if none of the
combinations succeed.

06cd0f1a32 Substituted new configure test for types of accept()
Interfaced a lot of the custom tests to the config.cache, in the process
made them separate macros and grouped them out into files. Made naming
adjustments.

Removed a couple of useless/unused configure tests.

Disabled C++ by default. C++ is no more special than Perl, Python, and Tcl.
And it breaks equally often. :(

6de89c9ab7 Moved the intricacies of the perl interface build into its own makefile
that now functions as a wrapper around the MakeMaker stuff. It might
even behave sensically when we have separate build dirs. Same for plperl,
which of course still doesn't work very well. Made sure that plperl
respects the choice of --libdir.

Added --with-python to automatically build and install the Python interface.
Works similarly to the Perl5 stuff.

Moved the burden of the distclean targets lower down into the source tree.
Eventually, each make file should have its own.

Added automatic remaking of makefiles and configure. Currently only for the
top-level because of a bug(?) in Autoconf. Use GNU `missing' to work around
missing autoconf and aclocal. Start factoring out macros into their own
config/*.m4 files to increase readability and organization.

in makefiles.
