Re: [PATCH] Guard `CLOBBER_FREED_MEMORY` & `MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING` - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

It will resolve the large number of these warnings from
https://github.com/pgcentralfoundation/pgrx/blob/6dfb9d1/cargo-pgrx/src/command/init.rs#L411-L412:

<command-line>: note: this is the location of the previous definition
./../../src/include/pg_config_manual.h:274: warning:
"MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING" redefined
 | #define MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING
 |

and yes will be sending them a patch also. But there's no harm in not
redefining symbols, so not sure why this is a controversial patch.
