Hi !

Please help, the FreeBSD port update to version 6.3 drives me to
despair ;-)

--with-tcl configure switch doesn't work to build libpgtcl

I only get it to work if I set in the make environment

USE_TCL=true

configure --with-tcl doesn't seem to set USE_TCL=true in
src/Makefile.global, so
src/interfaces/Makefile,
which includes
src/Makefile.global
fails, since USE_TCL isn't set to true. Workaround was to explicitely
set USE_TCL=true when starting the make.

Another problem: on FreeBSD-current (and I think this is true on
FreeBSD-2.2.x as well)

The make install fails when running the initdb script.

Adding template1 database to pg_database...
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1 < /tmp/create
.13645

vacuuming template1
creating public pg_user view
loading pg_description
*** Error code 1

The Postgresql 6.2 version needed a patch so that this works

I enhanced this patch and now use
"-o /dev/null"
and avoid
"2>&1"

several lines below where similar commands can be found, but this
doesn't solve the problem.
