On a lark I changed the postgresql version string from 8.0.0beta4 to 8.0.0 in configure, did a full make clean + configure + compile. After this trying to start the server elicits a version mismatch complaint from pg_ctl with postmaster.exe. I figure probably a line ending issue, no big deal (although I have no idea why it works now.) So, I hack exec.c to do a straight strcmp to a line-ending insensitive version of the same (aside: this may be a good idea anyways). Still no luck starting the server. It turns out pg_ctl is trying to compare postmaster (PostgreSQL) 8.0.0\n <-- on the pg_ctl side with postmaster (PostgreSQL) 8.0.\n <-- on the postmaster side, read from popen with -V switch. However, postmaster -V from the command line returns the correct version string. I further hack my insensitive comparison to subtract one from the expected string length, and now everything works normally. I checked all the buffer lengths and everything is within normal limits. Setting the version string back to 8.0.0 beta4 allows everything to work as originally coded via a straight strcmp(). Merlin
