works perfectly on AIX 4.3.3 with xlc. All regression tests pass, except
horology
that shows 7 extra -infinity rows. In contrib I tested btree_gist and
dblink
which also pass.
There are a few places left in contrib with duplicate warnings, some
because of
-l pgport and -I:postgres.imp but the main build is now free of those
warnings.
Thank you for the work, please apply.
