I have been trying to compile pgqsl 6.5 for a couple of weeks on my sgi
running irix 6.2 and using gcc 2.8.1 (i don't have sgi's compiler). I
could never get it to compile and my porting skills are not good. I
noticed today that there was a bug fix release to the source and so I
downloaded it and thought I would make another stab at it. I am
currently stuck in the build at the following error:
gmake[3]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/postgresql-6.5.1/src/backend/storage/buffer'
gcc -I../../../include -I../../../backend -U_NO_XOPEN4 -Wall
-Wmissing-prototypes -I../.. -c s_lock.c -o s_lock.o
s_lock.c: In function `s_lock':
s_lock.c:74: warning: passing arg 1 discards `volatile' from pointer

gmake[3]: *** [s_lock.o] Error 1
Could someone please explain this error or point me in an appropriate
direction.
