In addition to my RedHat 6.2 server, I'm installing Postgres 7.1.1 on an
SGI O2 (IRIX 6.5.10). The configure works, but the 'gmake all' fails
when it tries to compile 'xact.c':
cc-1521 cc: WARNING File = /usr/include/setjmp.h, Line = 26 A nonstandard preprocessing directive is used.

I'm using the SGI MIPSPro 7.1 C compiler. I haven't had any problems
like this when compiling previous versions of Postgres. If necessary, I
could try to get gcc instead of the MIPSPro compiler, but I wonder if
the xact.c definition for timeval could be modified to pass on my
machine.
Thanks.
