Re: FPE on Alpha in Select with PKEY (Patch) - Mailing list pgsql-ports

Hi,

    I seem to have fixed the floating point problem on the Alphas -- at
least for my test cases. It requires the following patch at the end of
this mail. Could somebody who know postgres a bit better than me please
double-check it, and let me know whether it is ok? The regression test
seemed to run ok'ish (i.e. no more than before failed).
