Story: The Slony-I team is proudly presenting the 1.0 release of the most advanced replication solution for the most advanced OpenSource Database in the world: <a href=\"http://www.slony.org\">http://www.slony.org</a> The multithreaded replication engine requires the libpq client library to be compiled with --enable-thread-safety on certainoperating systems. Known are thus far Solaris and AIX. Other operating systems are known to not requirethis (Linux-X86, FreeBSD-X86, FreeBSD-Alpha, OpenBSD-Sparc64 and OSX). The configuration script is broken withrespect to the --enable-thread-safety switch for Solaris. Please apply this patch, configure and recompile libpq:<a href=\"http://developer.postgresql.org/~wieck/slony1/download/threadsafe-libpq-742.diff.gz\">threadsafe-libpq-742.diff.gz</a>. Wewill make patches for 7.3.x available on request.
