Hi! Help me please.

I try compile PostgreSQL 7.0.2 on
OS:
    SCO UnixWare 2.1.3
    SCO UnixWare SDK
    ptf4001i, ptf4003b, ptf4004a, ptf4024b
machine:
    DELL PowerEdge 2100
    (Intel Pentium Pro 200MHz, 96Mb RAM, 4Gb and 9Gb Wide-SCSI HDD)

I have follow truble:

cc -o ecpg preproc.o pgc.o.... ../lib/typename.o ... -lgen -lcrypt -lld
-lnsl    \
    -lsocket -ldl -lm -lutil -ltermcap -lcurses -lc89 -Wl,-Bexport

Undefined            first referenced
  symbol                in file
nocachegetattr        pgc.o
UX:ld: ERROR: ecpg: fatal error: Symbol referencing errors. No output
written to ecpg.

What can I do? Help me please.

Best regards,
Igor N. Avtaev

I know the cause of this.  SCO has a buggy compiler in several (many?)
releases, and one of our macros is too large for the compiler.  There is
a DISABLE_COMPLEX_MACRO define that turns off an inline macro for sco.

In 7.0.X, it seems the include file using the macro is also called by
ecpg, and because ecpg does not include the C file that defines the
non-inline version of the macro, it fails.  At least that is my guess.

I am testing the current tree now, but one solution is to remove the
DISABLE_COMPLEX_MACRO defined from ./include/port/sco.h.

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce the problem in the current source tree.
