Well, 1.0.10 has already been released, so we have better support it or find out why it doesn't work. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073

I have just done a fresh cvs checkout, followed by "./configure --without-zlib; make check" and got 94 of 95 tests passing (still waiting for the alternative join result I submitted weeks ago to be added to CVS). Maybe he is running the check from cygwin, as we used to advise people to do? There is no need to do that any more - you can run the regression checks from MSys. Other notes: There is a bug in the link check code in configure.in - I will submit a patch shortly. I have also noticed some compiler warnings that we should clean up. cheers andrew
