Alright, so what do we need to do to test this? We really just need a
short C program written up and then a bunch of folks to run it on
various architectures, right? Gee, sounds like what the buildfarm was
made for (alright, alright, PostgreSQL isn't exactly a 'short C
program', but you get the idea). As I recall, Andrew reworked the
buildfarm code to be more modular too.. Anyone have thoughts about how
we could run these kinds of tests with it? Or do people think that's a
bad idea?
Thanks,
Stephen
