Adriaan,
thanks for the reply!!! I found the patches. But I'm not sure I
understand what I can do with it. -- the difficult thing here is
that I'm NOT the system adm and dba (actually we do not have THE "dba"),
Usually I'm responsible for the C/C++, java, perl, PL/pgSQL programming, but
now I need to provide a solution of moving the db and cgi to the "bigger"
machine (alpha DS20). Can you give me more detailed information? Also,
forgive me asking this dummy question again: is "Tru64" exactly identical to
"OSF/1" or "Digital Unix"?
thanks in advance!!

Tru64 is just a renaming of Digital Unix / OSF/1(Those Compaq people
can't
spell, where is good old digital with a line-long engineering number you
can't remember?)
Postgres runs fine on Alphas, but you need to use the cc compiler, i.e.
compile with template alpha_cc. And you need to use 6.5.2. I think I sent
in
a couple of minor patches -- have a look at the mailing list archive.
