Re: Patches for AIX builds..

Thanks for the replies.. I also would like to hear from other AIX users to
ensure that I'm not holucinating that these changes are needed.. As for the
signed vs. unsigned chars, I only enabled that option as a way to cut down
on
the massive amount of warnings about type mismatches that occur in some of
the
build directories (odbc as a minimum) -- most directories are fine, but some
of them elicit many warnings on this compiler/platform combination.. I only
thought I would send out these patches, since I didn't really have any
problems
building PostgreSQL on either Solaris 8, or HP-UX 11..

Considering we have at least two frontline beta testers who use AIX,
I'm fairly dubious of claims that things don't build there. ODBC
maybe (do either Tatsuo or Andreas use ODBC?) but these other changes
I'm wary of.

We should *not* care whether chars are signed or not.
