Bug Report with Postgres 7.4 on AIX 5.3

Dear Support,

We try to install Postgres 7.4 on AIX 5.3 (IBM,9111-520).
The compilation is good and we are able to start the postmaster.
When we try to start the psql we got the following error :
FATAL: unsupported frontend protocol 0.0: server supports 1.0 to 3.0

We run the psql under the AIX debugger dbx and our conclusions are the
following :

In the file fe-connect.c we try to copy a area of 1025 in the
conn->raddr.addr area but the size of that area is only 144.
The result is a corruption of the pg_conn structure

+1175 /* Remember current address
for possible error msg */
+1176 memcpy(&conn->raddr.addr,
addr_cur->ai_addr,
+1177
addr_cur->ai_addrlen);

The addr_cur->ai_addrlen is set with the sizeof(struct sockaddr_un) in the
file ip.c.

In the file libpq-int.h the structure pg_conn contains 2 fields SockAddr
* PGconn stores all the state data associated with a single connection
* to a backend.
*/
struct pg_conn
{
...
SockAddr laddr; /* Local address */
SockAddr raddr;
...
}

The structure SockAddr is defined in the file pqcomm.h

typedef struct
{
struct sockaddr_storage addr;
ACCEPT_TYPE_ARG3 salen;
} SockAddr;

On Our AIX 5.3 the sockaddr_un is defined in the file /usr/include/sys/un.h

#if defined(COMPAT_43) && !defined(_KERNEL)
struct sockaddr_un {
ushort_t sun_family; /* AF_UNIX */
char sun_path[PATH_MAX]; /* changed from 104 to PATH_MAX to
support long user names */
};
#else
struct sockaddr_un {
uchar_t sun_len; /* sockaddr len including null */
sa_family_t sun_family; /* AF_UNIX */
char sun_path[PATH_MAX]; /* changed from 104 to PATH_MAX to
support long user names */
};
#endif /* COMPAT_43 && !_KERNEL */

PATH_MAX is defined in the file /usr/include/sys/limits.h

#if _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L && !(defined _ALL_SOURCE) ||
defined(_PATHMAX_HAS_NULL)
#define PATH_MAX 1024 /* max number of bytes in a
pathname.
includes a terminating null */
#else
#define PATH_MAX 1023
#endif

In our platform the sizeof of struct sockaddr_un is 1025 and the sizeof of
SockAddr is 144.
In conclusion the instructions done in the function PQconnectPoll cause a
memory overflow !!!

+1175 /* Remember current address
for possible error msg */
+1176 memcpy(&conn->raddr.addr,
addr_cur->ai_addr,
+1177
addr_cur->ai_addrlen);

Are you aware about this problem ?
Could you give us a way to solve the problem ?

Kind Regards,
Vincent Vanwynsberghe
