Hi,
PostgreSQL 8.1.5 have a problem with division by zero on sparc.
Solaris 9 sparc, gcc 4.0.2, 4.1.1:
$ ./configure --enable-thread-safety --disable-nls --without-perl
--without-python --without-krb5 --without-openssl --without-readline
...
$ make && make check
...
=======================1 of 98 tests failed.
=======================
The differences that caused some tests to fail can be viewed in the
file `./regression.diffs'. A copy of the test summary that you see
above is saved in the file `./regression.out'.
