Having recently tried to build 7.4, and 8.0 branches on Itanium2 with ICC

I encountered the same error as people before:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2005-03/msg00084.php
But the patch from this thread wasn't applied.

I don't know whether it's worth fixing that for old branches ... ,
but I send the patches...

Is it worth applying ?

Regards,
     Sergey

7.4 is not going to work with ICC anyway without considerably more
extensive changes (eg, configure hacking).  It might make sense to
apply this patch to 8.0 but I can't get all that excited about it.

It worked for me with both 7.4 & 8.0 after applying my patch. (and make
check worked ...) ( at least with icc 9.1.x)

I guess that fix is just no-cost fix. I don't see any problems that
may arise from it. So my personal opinion is that it should be applied...
