the ecpg Makefiles use a variable DESTDIR which is never defined
except by debian/rules makefile, in which case the ecpg makefiles
expand wrong pathnames. If we want to support a DESTDIR root it
must be done consistently in all the makefiles, not just in ecpg.

been applied. The patches are in the .tar.gz attachment at the end:
varchar-array.patch this patch adds support for arrays of bpchar() and
varchar(), which where always missing from postgres.
These datatypes can be used to replace the _char4,
_char8, etc., which were dropped some time ago.
block-size.patch this patch fixes many errors in the parser and other
program which happen with very large query statements
(> 8K) when using a page size larger than 8192.
This patch is needed if you want to submit queries
larger than 8K. Postgres supports tuples up to 32K
but you can't insert them because you can't submit
queries larger than 8K. My patch fixes this problem.
The patch also replaces all the occurrences of `8192'
and `1<<13' in the sources with the proper constants
defined in include files. You should now never find
8192 hardwired in C code, just to make code clearer.

remaining shift/reduce conflict. But the very same conflict is in gram.y, so
I don't dig into it very much now.
Anyway, I just saw that there were minor changes made to ecpg by others. Now
I like that but I would prefer if I was told about that. Otherwise my
version numbering and Changelog maintaining might break. Or simply change
these too. :-)
Also I had to add #include <errno.h> to backend/libpq/pqcomprim.c to be
able to compile postgresql.
Patch is attached. Since my resubscription process is still not finished
yet, I still send them here.

This one is against the current archive (so it contains the one I send the
other day). It should fix the AIX problems. Andreas, could you please try
it? Thanks.
