They know ;) But just as with RH, they build ~1500 packages, so it is
probably not realistic to get them to change their build standards over
one misbehavior in one package.

The goal here is to get PostgreSQL to work well for as many platforms as
possible. Heck, we even build for M$ ;)

So, I'm still looking for the best way to add a compile flag while
making it clear that it is for one distro only. Of course, it would be
possible to just add it at the end of the flags, but it would be nice to
do that only when necessary.

Regards.
