[ADMIN] Problems compiling PostgreSQL 6.4 on Digital Unix 4.0d - Mailing list pgsql-admin

I don't know if this message should be sent to the admin list or the
hackers list.  Please redirect me if this is the wrong list.  I am having
some trouble compiling version 6.4 on Digital Unix 4.0d.

The first problem I ran into was a function prototyping error in
snprintf.c.  I was able to fix this problem.  Here is the SCCS diff of the
fix that I had to do to make it compile:

------- snprintf.c -------
123a124,126
> #ifdef HAVE_LONG_INT_64
> static void fmtnum __P((long_long value, int base, int dosign, int ljust, int len, int zpad));
> #else
124a128
> #endif


However, now the compile fails with all of this:


gcc -I../../../include -I../../../backend   -DNOFIXADE  -Wall
  -Wmissing-prototypes -I../..   -c buf_init.c -o buf_init.o
  ../../../include/storage/s_lock.h: In function `tas':

And then:

I am unable to figure out what do do at this point.  Can someone suggest
fixes for these errors?

Thanks,
