Re: 7.1.3, IRIX 6.5 and gcc

Hello

Thanks Peter! That solved the problem and I could get postgresql 7.1.3 to
compile. Actually it works :) It seems that for my needs now, this GCC is
enough... At least I could compile postgresql, python, postfix and xemacs
and some other GNU software ... :)

Thanks again!
