System Configuration
---------------------
  Architecture (example: Intel Pentium)  	:	Intel Pentium MMX

  Operating System (example: Linux 2.0.26 ELF) 	: 	Linux 2.0.36

  Compiler used (example:  gcc 2.8.0)		:	gcc 2.7.2.1


Please enter a FULL description of your problem:
------------------------------------------------

Problems at compilation. Here are the logged errors (as produced by make
all):

first one:

make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/time'
gcc -I../../include -I../../backend   -O2  -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -I..
-c fmgrtab.c -o fmgrtab.o
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `adt/SUBSYS.o', needed by `SUBSYS.o'.
Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils'
make[1]: *** [utils.dir] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend'
make: *** [all] Error 2

With this message (and some time and reading, and...) I
could detect that the error had really happened earlier in the compilation
proces, the error was:

gcc -I../../../include -I../../../backend   -O2  -Wall
-Wmissing-prototypes -I../..   -c date.c -o date.o
date.c: In function `timespan_reltime':
date.c:354: `INT_MIN' undeclared (first use this function)
date.c:354: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
date.c:354: for each function it appears in.)
date.c:354: `INT_MAX' undeclared (first use this function)
date.c:314: warning: `time' might be used uninitialized in this function
make[3]: *** [date.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/adt'
make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/cache'

After solving this problem (by changing the code, look below), I got a
similar error with the file float.c (instead of date.c), which I "fixed"
in a similar manner (look below). 

second one:

After those errors were corrected, I retryied the compilation, but got
still an other error:

(I also set the warnigs, because I don't know what they mean, so just to
be sure...)

So again I made some changes to the code and recompiled. This time error
free. (For the code changes, look below)

Please describe a way to repeat the problem.   Please try to provide a
concise reproducible example, if at all possible: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I followed all the instructions in the INSTALL file (almost) word for
word.

If you know how this problem might be fixed, list the solution below:
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I could succesfully compile after doing the following code changes:

For the fist error:

The altered files where two, namely:

/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/adt/date.c
/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/adt/float.c

On both I did the same change:

I added the following lines: (after the #include's)

#ifndef INT_MAX
#define INT_MAX (0x7FFFFFFFL)
#endif    
#ifndef INT_MIN
#define INT_MIN (-0x80000000L)
#endif

Why? I found these definitions on another file:

/usr/src/pgsql/src/backend/utils/adt/numutils.c

And I assume they have the same meaning throughout the code.

For the second error:

I also had to change 2 files, this time they were:

/usr/src/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/pgc.c
/usr/src/pgsql/src/interfaces/ecpg/preproc/extern.h

The changes were as follow:

On pgc.c I deleted the lines: (they start at line 743)

#ifndef YYLMAX 
#define YYLMAX 8192
#endif

char yytext[YYLMAX];

And on extern.h I:

-deleted the line 18, which contained: 

extern char *yytext;

and instead I wrote the lines:

#ifndef YYLMAX
#define YYLMAX 8192
#endif

char yytext[YYLMAX];


However I just noticed that I forgot the keyword "extern" on the last
line...

maybe it should be:

#ifndef YYLMAX
#define YYLMAX 8192
#endif

extern char yytext[YYLMAX];

Well if something goes wrong I'll make that change and recompile...

Hopefully this helps.
