The rules of the game are as follows: 1) If an option possibly can be a run-time option then it should be one rather than a compile-time option. This allows users of binary packages to have the same flexibility as users of the source code distribution. (The --enable-locale option is actually slated for that kind of move soon.) Having the option in both places is confusing. 2) No compile-time option may replace one behavior by another. This allows binary packagers to make unbiased decisions about which options to activate. (Note that --enable-locale does not replace behavior, it simply adds more.) What we want to do is integrate the SET DateStyle variable into GUC somehow, but I'm not entirely happy with the current behavior and have been unable to agree with Thomas Lockhart on how to do it. But it will get done eventually. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net
