In response to Patch for NetWare support  ("Ulrich Neumann" <U_Neumann@gne.de>)
List pgsql-patches
I wish we didn't have to add this part of the patch to main.c:

+       /*
+        * If the first argument is "-post", then invoke postmaster mode. Note
+        * we remove "-post" from the arguments passed on to BootstrapMain.
+     * This is added for one reasons: NetWare doesn't have symbolic links
+     * right. ((
+        */
+       if (argc > 1 && strcmp(new_argv[1], "-post") == 0)
+               exit(PostmasterMain(argc - 1, new_argv + 1));

Do we have to document this, but only for Netware?  Yuck.
