We are running RH 6.2 on an Alpha twin 666MHz Compusys a6679gbt machine. The
gcc version is egcs-2.91.66

The following lines appear whilst running gmake install:

/usr/include/bits/mathinline.h:156: warning: no previous prototype for
`__fdimf'
/usr/include/bits/mathinline.h:161: warning: no previous prototype for
`fdimf'
/usr/include/bits/mathinline.h:166: warning: no previous prototype for
`__fdim'


I have installed some patches from
http://www.rkirkpat.net/software/#linux-alpha , however, this was
unsuccessful.
I'm not sure whether the patches were meant for postgresql 7.0.2 although
the patch id was for postgresql version 7.0.


The following is the result of running the initdb program after installing
the patches...........

[postgres@alfie pgsql]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data

This database system will be initialized with username "postgres".
This user will own all the data files and must also own the server process.

Are there any patches available for postgres7.0.2?
