a6757f2ce3 Include Emacs DocBook DTD description file. May allow Emacs to understand
tags even if DocBook is not installed on your local system.
Most of the .sgml source files contain a reference to this file in an
 Emacs setup block at the bottom of the file...

03f1648872 Attached is a patch with some fixes that (I think that) should go into
6.4.1. Here is the list:

- The type int8 now works. In fact, the bug(s) were in
src/backend/port/snprintf.c, so int8 is probably broken in every platform
that hasn't a native snprintf/vsnprintf. The type itself worked as
expected, only the output was wrong. Anyway, this patch should be checked
in other platforms.

- The regression tests for int2 and int4, which were broken due to
differences in the error messages, are fixed.

- The regression test for float8, which was broken in the reference
platform, is also fixed. I don't know if the new file (float8-OSF1.out)
will work on other platforms, but it might be worth to try it.

- Two new template files are provided (alpha_cc, which includes
optimization, and alpha_gcc), and src/templates/.similar is updated
accordingly. src/templates/alpha should be removed from the distribution.
*IMPORTANT NOTE*: I don't know if you can use gcc to compile postgres;
I've written the alpha_gcc file because alpha_cc has some flags that are
specific to DEC C.

- There is a (very basic) Digital Unix specific FAQ in
doc/FAQ_DigitalUnix.

b10a719777 Use autoconf to determine whether system has POSIX signals,
instead of relying on port's os.h to tell us.  (Needed for HPUX
where system major version is not enough info.)
configure unsets USE_TK if X libraries not found.
doc/Makefile uses gzcat or zcat as found by autoconf.
