On an powerPC AIX 5.3 box, initdb from 8.1beta4 segfaults at
src/backend/utils/hash/dynahash.c:673. No segfaults occur and all 98
regression tests pass if a test is added to see if keycopy is memcpy and
if it is, go through a loop memcpying one byte at a time instead of
memcpying everything at once.
Configuration details:
-bash-2.05b$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
